Split it into hexadecimal. If you want an explanation (several reasons why I think this works with brains better), I'll elaborate -- but here's the quick version: 0100 0001 = 0x4 0x1 = 0x41 = 4*16 + 1 = 65

thats how binary works, you can't read it any faster than that

Hmm. Just wondering about "something faster". BUT. When its only an ASCII Conversion for the alphabet, like u do. When the BIT at Position 7 is set you can "see" your chosen one in the 5 digits at the beginning
