Number to / from Bits Processors

The “Number to Bits” and “Bits to Number” processors are installed with the Dataristix Application. The “Number to Bits” processor converts a number input into separate bit value outputs, and the “Bits to Number” processor converts a number of bit value inputs into a number. These processors are available in Dataristix version 3 and later.
