Converting Data Types

This tutorial will describe how to convert between data types. The previous tutorial, Signal Data Types, presents an introduction to the Complex Float 32 and Float 32 data types for representing digitized signals.

Char/Byte Data Type

The Char or Byte data type is another useful data type for representing binary data. The Byte data type is represented by the magenta color in GRC:

• random source
• use in modulator
