two bytes to int c
// bytes_to_int_example.cpp
// Output: port = 514
// I am assuming that the bytes the bytes need to be treated as 0-255 and combined MSB -> LSB
// This creates a macro in your code that does the conversion and can be tweaked as necessary
#define bytes_to_u16(MSB,LSB) (((unsigned int) ((unsigned char) MSB)) & 255)<<8 | (((unsigned char) LSB)&255)
// Note: #define statements do not typically have semi-colons
#include <stdio.h>

char buf[2];
// Fill buf with example numbers
buf[0]=2; // (Least significant byte)
buf[1]=2; // (Most significant byte)
// If endian is other way around swap bytes!
