Too Much Wasted Time

Today we tried to go from the number of bits to our actual binary message. To simplify things we coded in visual c++ rather than MP Labs. It took a while but we got the number of bits translated into binary by storing the binary message in another array. After we got that right we tried to do the same thing by bit shifting within one variable (to save memory) rather than using arrays. In the end we got that method mostly working but we decide to stick with the arrays because we didn't have any problems with it and we aren't worried about memory space. Tomorrow we will try and implement that into our code.
