There are representations of values and true binary values. The ASCII code is a representation. To get the actual value, see my first post. If the instruction gives you the number already reduced to its true binary value, then all you have to do is work with it. Please read the posts and think about them. The effer is binary. The print converts it to ink on paper or glowing dots on some other output media. It's still binary in your machine. Ones and zeros. In (for typical integers) weighted positions.
