Binary Constant Macros in C
Tom Torfs (via Jonathan Rentzsch):
I’ve been missing the lack of support for binary numeric literals in C. To get around it I wrote the following handy macros, which allows you to simply write something like:
whatever = B8(10101010);and will translate as:
whatever = 85;

I believe that both gcc and clang support '0b' as a prefix for binary constants.
whatever = 0b10101010;
It's not standard C (or C++), though.
