Can't get hex bytes from file

Processing Coding Questions

I am trying to make a 6502 disassembler and found out that saveBytes() and loadBytes() do not save and load hex bytes, I tried to extract a text file containing the letter “a” expecting to get “61” but got “[B@1c0f834d”, help! Code: byte b[] = loadBytes(“test.txt”);
print(b);

print(b); is giving you weird output because b is an array of bytes.

You want to show the value of a specific byte! Not the array of them!

Try print(b[0]); instead. This will give you the numerical value of the first byte in the array.

That ended up giving me “97” not “61”
EDIT “97” in hex is “61” so it does work, thanks!
