I'm using jmrtd library on android to get and process passport information.
The first step is to send a challenge to the passport so it responds with a random 64 bit number as a byte array (8 bytes).
The function sendGetChallenge returns a byte array.
I need to print out this byte array as a number to make analysis but I'm having trouble converting the byte array returned to long, mainly because I'm not sure if this array is big endian or little endian.
So far I've used the following methods:
public static long byteArrayToLong(byte[] bytes){
long value = 0;
value += (long) (bytes[7] & 0x000000FF) << 56;
value += (long) (bytes[6] & 0x000000FF) << 48;
value += (long) (bytes[5] & 0x000000FF) << 40;
value += (long) (bytes[4] & 0x000000FF) << 32;
value += (bytes[3] & 0x000000FF) << 24;
value += (bytes[2] & 0x000000FF) << 16;
value += (bytes[1] & 0x000000FF) << 8;
value += (bytes[0] & 0x000000FF);
return value;
}
Or
private long byteArrayToLong(byte[] buffer){
long value=0;
long multiplier=1;
for (int i = 7; i >= 0; i--) { //get from the right
value=value+(buffer[i] & 0xff)*multiplier;
multiplier=multiplier <<8;
}
return value;
}
Or
public static long bytesToLong(byte[] bytes) {
ByteBuffer buffer = ByteBuffer.allocate(Long.SIZE);
buffer.put(bytes);
buffer.flip();
return buffer.getLong();
}
Or
byte[] randomNumber = sendGetChallenge();
new BigInteger(randomNumber).toString();
But I'm getting (sometimes) negative values which is obviously wrong.
Can someone help me on why am I getting negative values, or if someone know how to get the long value from the byte array returned by the sendGetChallenge function from jmrtd library.
Thank you.
That negative isn't wrong. What's happening is that long is a signed number, so if the first bit of your byte array is a 1 it will turn the entire number negative. Its holding the right value, but it will display as a negative. The solution is to either deal with it or not use a long (use a BigInteger or a String).
This question is usually asked as a part of another question but it turns out that the answer is long. I've decided to answer it here so I can link to it elsewhere.
Although I'm not aware of a way that Java can produce audio samples for us at this time, if that changes in the future, this can be a place for it. I know that JavaFX has some stuff like this, for example AudioSpectrumListener, but still not a way to access samples directly.
I'm using javax.sound.sampled for playback and/or recording but I'd like to do something with the audio.
Perhaps I'd like to display it visually or process it in some way.
How do I access audio sample data to do that with Java Sound?
See also:
Java Sound Tutorials (Official)
Java Sound Resources (Unofficial)
Well, the simplest answer is that at the moment Java can't produce sample data for the programmer.
This quote is from the official tutorial:
There are two ways to apply signal processing:
You can use any processing supported by the mixer or its component lines, by querying for Control objects and then setting the controls as the user desires. Typical controls supported by mixers and lines include gain, pan, and reverberation controls.
If the kind of processing you need isn't provided by the mixer or its lines, your program can operate directly on the audio bytes, manipulating them as desired.
This page discusses the first technique in greater detail, because there is no special API for the second technique.
Playback with javax.sound.sampled largely acts as a bridge between the file and the audio device. The bytes are read in from the file and sent off.
Don't assume the bytes are meaningful audio samples! Unless you happen to have an 8-bit AIFF file, they aren't. (On the other hand, if the samples are definitely 8-bit signed, you can do arithmetic with them. Using 8-bit is one way to avoid the complexity described here, if you're just playing around.)
So instead, I'll enumerate the types of AudioFormat.Encoding and describe how to decode them yourself. This answer will not cover how to encode them, but it's included in the complete code example at the bottom. Encoding is mostly just the decoding process in reverse.
This is a long answer but I wanted to give a thorough overview.
A Little About Digital Audio
Generally when digital audio is explained, we're referring to Linear Pulse-Code Modulation (LPCM).
A continuous sound wave is sampled at regular intervals and the amplitudes are quantized to integers of some scale.
Shown here is a sine wave sampled and quantized to 4-bit:
(Notice that the most positive value in two's complement representation is 1 less than the most negative value. This is a minor detail to be aware of. For example if you're clipping audio and forget this, the positive clips will overflow.)
When we have audio on the computer, we have an array of these samples. A sample array is what we want to turn the byte array in to.
To decode PCM samples, we don't care much about the sample rate or number of channels, so I won't be saying much about them here. Channels are usually interleaved, so that if we had an array of them, they'd be stored like this:
Index 0: Sample 0 (Left Channel)
Index 1: Sample 0 (Right Channel)
Index 2: Sample 1 (Left Channel)
Index 3: Sample 1 (Right Channel)
Index 4: Sample 2 (Left Channel)
Index 5: Sample 2 (Right Channel)
...
In other words, for stereo, the samples in the array just alternate between left and right.
Some Assumptions
All of the code examples will assume the following declarations:
byte[] bytes; The byte array, read from the AudioInputStream.
float[] samples; The output sample array that we're going to fill.
float sample; The sample we're currently working on.
long temp; An interim value used for general manipulation.
int i; The position in the byte array where the current sample's data starts.
We'll normalize all of the samples in our float[] array to the range of -1f <= sample <= 1f. All of the floating-point audio I've seen comes this way and it's pretty convenient.
If our source audio doesn't already come like that (as is for e.g. integer samples), we can normalize them ourselves using the following:
sample = sample / fullScale(bitsPerSample);
Where fullScale is 2bitsPerSample - 1, i.e. Math.pow(2, bitsPerSample-1).
How do I coerce the byte array in to meaningful data?
The byte array contains the sample frames split up and all in a line. This is actually very straight-forward except for something called endianness, which is the ordering of the bytes in each sample packet.
Here's a diagram. This sample (packed in to a byte array) holds the decimal value 9999:
24-bit sample as big-endian:
bytes[i] bytes[i + 1] bytes[i + 2]
┌──────┐ ┌──────┐ ┌──────┐
00000000 00100111 00001111
24-bit sample as little-endian:
bytes[i] bytes[i + 1] bytes[i + 2]
┌──────┐ ┌──────┐ ┌──────┐
00001111 00100111 00000000
They hold the same binary values; however, the byte orders are reversed.
In big-endian, the more significant bytes come before the less significant bytes.
In little-endian, the less significant bytes come before the more significant bytes.
WAV files are stored in little-endian order and AIFF files are stored in big-endian order. Endianness can be obtained from AudioFormat.isBigEndian.
To concatenate the bytes and put them in to our long temp variable, we:
Bitwise AND each byte with the mask 0xFF (which is 0b1111_1111) to avoid sign-extension when the byte is automatically promoted. (char, byte and short are promoted to int when arithmetic is performed on them.) See also What does value & 0xff do in Java?
Bit shift each byte in to position.
Bitwise OR the bytes together.
Here's a 24-bit example:
long temp;
if (isBigEndian) {
temp = (
((bytes[i ] & 0xffL) << 16)
| ((bytes[i + 1] & 0xffL) << 8)
| (bytes[i + 2] & 0xffL)
);
} else {
temp = (
(bytes[i ] & 0xffL)
| ((bytes[i + 1] & 0xffL) << 8)
| ((bytes[i + 2] & 0xffL) << 16)
);
}
Notice that the shift order is reversed based on endianness.
This can also be generalized to a loop, which can be seen in the full code at the bottom of this answer. (See the unpackAnyBit and packAnyBit methods.)
Now that we have the bytes concatenated together, we can take a few more steps to turn them in to a sample. The next steps depend on the actual encoding.
How do I decode Encoding.PCM_SIGNED?
The two's complement sign must be extended. This means that if the most significant bit (MSB) is set to 1, we fill all the bits above it with 1s. The arithmetic right-shift (>>) will do the filling for us automatically if the sign bit is set, so I usually do it this way:
int bitsToExtend = Long.SIZE - bitsPerSample;
float sample = (temp << bitsToExtend) >> bitsToExtend.
(Where Long.SIZE is 64. If our temp variable wasn't a long, we'd use something else. If we used e.g. int temp instead, we'd use 32.)
To understand how this works, here's a diagram of sign-extending 8-bit to 16-bit:
11111111 is the byte value -1, but the upper bits of the short are 0.
Shift the byte's MSB in to the MSB position of the short.
0000 0000 1111 1111
<< 8
───────────────────
1111 1111 0000 0000
Shift it back and the right-shift fills all the upper bits with 1s.
We now have the short value of -1.
1111 1111 0000 0000
>> 8
───────────────────
1111 1111 1111 1111
Positive values (that had a 0 in the MSB) are left unchanged. This is a nice property of the arithmetic right-shift.
Then normalize the sample, as described in Some Assumptions.
You might not need to write explicit sign-extension if your code is simple
Java does sign-extension automatically when converting from one integral type to a larger type, for example byte to int. If you know that your input and output format are always signed, you can use the automatic sign-extension while concatenating bytes in the earlier step.
Recall from the section above (How do I coerce the byte array in to meaningful data?) that we used b & 0xFF to prevent sign-extension from occurring. If you just remove the & 0xFF from the highest byte, sign-extension will happen automatically.
For example, the following decodes signed, big-endian, 16-bit samples:
for (int i = 0; i < bytes.length; i++) {
int sample = (bytes[i] << 8) // high byte is sign-extended
| (bytes[i + 1] & 0xFF); // low byte is not
// ...
}
How do I decode Encoding.PCM_UNSIGNED?
We turn it in to a signed number. Unsigned samples are simply offset so that, for example:
An unsigned value of 0 corresponds to the most negative signed value.
An unsigned value of 2bitsPerSample - 1 corresponds to the signed value of 0.
An unsigned value of 2bitsPerSample corresponds to the most positive signed value.
So this turns out to be pretty simple. Just subtract the offset:
float sample = temp - fullScale(bitsPerSample);
Then normalize the sample, as described in Some Assumptions.
How do I decode Encoding.PCM_FLOAT?
This is new since Java 7.
In practice, floating-point PCM is typically either IEEE 32-bit or IEEE 64-bit and already normalized to the range of ±1.0. The samples can be obtained with the utility methods Float#intBitsToFloat and Double#longBitsToDouble.
// IEEE 32-bit
float sample = Float.intBitsToFloat((int) temp);
// IEEE 64-bit
double sampleAsDouble = Double.longBitsToDouble(temp);
float sample = (float) sampleAsDouble; // or just use double for arithmetic
How do I decode Encoding.ULAW and Encoding.ALAW?
These are companding compression codecs that are more common in telephones and such. They're supported by javax.sound.sampled I assume because they're used by Sun's Au format. (However, it's not limited to just this type of container. For example, WAV can contain these encodings.)
You can conceptualize A-law and μ-law like they're a floating-point format. These are PCM formats but the range of values is non-linear.
There are two ways to decode them. I'll show the way which uses the mathematical formula. You can also decode them by manipulating the binary directly which is described in this blog post but it's more esoteric-looking.
For both, the compressed data is 8-bit. Standardly A-law is 13-bit when decoded and μ-law is 14-bit when decoded; however, applying the formula yields a range of ±1.0.
Before you can apply the formula, there are three things to do:
Some of the bits are standardly inverted for storage due to reasons involving data integrity.
They're stored as sign and magnitude (rather than two's complement).
The formula also expects a range of ±1.0, so the 8-bit value has to be scaled.
For μ-law all the bits are inverted, so:
temp ^= 0xffL; // 0xff == 0b1111_1111
(Note that we can't use ~, because we don't want to invert the high bits of the long.)
For A-law, every other bit is inverted, so:
temp ^= 0x55L; // 0x55 == 0b0101_0101
(XOR can be used to do inversion. See How do you set, clear and toggle a bit?)
To convert from sign and magnitude to two's complement, we:
Check to see if the sign bit was set.
If so, clear the sign bit and negate the number.
// 0x80 == 0b1000_0000
if ((temp & 0x80L) != 0) {
temp ^= 0x80L;
temp = -temp;
}
Then scale the encoded numbers, the same way as described in Some Assumptions:
sample = temp / fullScale(8);
Now we can apply the expansion.
The μ-law formula translated to Java is then:
sample = (float) (
signum(sample)
*
(1.0 / 255.0)
*
(pow(256.0, abs(sample)) - 1.0)
);
The A-law formula translated to Java is then:
float signum = signum(sample);
sample = abs(sample);
if (sample < (1.0 / (1.0 + log(87.7)))) {
sample = (float) (
sample * ((1.0 + log(87.7)) / 87.7)
);
} else {
sample = (float) (
exp((sample * (1.0 + log(87.7))) - 1.0) / 87.7
);
}
sample = signum * sample;

This is how you get the actual sample data from the currently playing sound. The other excellent answer will tell you what the data means. Haven't tried it on another OS than my Windows 10 machine YMMV. For me it pulls the current system default recording device. On Windows set it to "Stereo Mix" instead of "Microphone" to get playing sound. You may have to toggle "Show Disabled Devices" to see "Stereo Mix".

I'm trying to make a reliable UDP system and I need to convert byte[] to int and back (JCreator 5.0 LE)
DatagramPacket requires its data in byte[] form, so I have to convert the int information into byte[] so I can send it:
byte[] data = new byte[48];
System.arraycopy(task.getProtocol().byteValue(), 0, data, 0, task.getProtocol().byteValue().length);
System.arraycopy(task.getMessage().byteValue(), 0, data, 4, task.getMessage().byteValue().length);
System.arraycopy(task.getSequence().byteValue(), 0, data, 8, task.getSequence().byteValue().length);
System.arraycopy(task.getAcknowledge().byteValue(), 0, data, 12, task.getAcknowledge().byteValue().length);
for (int i = task.getAcknowledge(); i >= 0 && i > task.getAcknowledge() - 33; i--) {
for (Packet j: tasks) {
if (j.getSequence() == i) {
data[i] = 1;
break;
}
}
}
out = new DatagramPacket(data, data.length, ds.getInetAddress(), portNum);
ds.send(out);
Protocol is the protocolID
Message is the "information" that is being sent
Sequence is the packet's sequence number; the first packet sent has a sequence of 0, the next is 1, and so on
Acknowledge is the acknowledgement of a packet being sent back
The next part is the 32 other acknowledgements. For the sake of saving memory, they are compressed into 1 byte each instead of 4 bytes (int)
Now, when I receive the packet I need to unpackage it. First I need to check the first 4 bytes (the protocol) to see if I will ignore the packet or not, but I don't know how to convert the byte array into an int.
You can use
ByteBuffer bb = ByteBuffer.wrap(bytes).order(ByteOrder.LITTLE_ENDIAN or BIG_ENDIAN);
bb.position(pos);
int n = bb.getInt();
byte array - > String -> Integer
Byte array - 4 bytes;
String - new String(byte array);
Integer -
Integer.parseInt(String);
Well, here's a general way to do it; it it's a 32-bit Big-Endian (the usual 'network order'), starting at position 'pos' in your array:
int out = 0;
out += 0xFF & data[pos++];
out <<= 8;
out += 0xFF & data[pos++];
out <<= 8;
out += 0xFF & data[pos++];
out <<= 8;
out += 0xFF & data[pos++];
But this can be adapted to the number of bytes used for your integers. I'd make methods to call, returning 'out'. Look out for bugs due to sign. The "0xFF &" is there to avoid those. Also, not sure I got the <<= thing right.
If they're little-endian, well a bit harder:
int out = 0;
pos += 4;
out += 0xFF & data[--pos];
out <<= 8;
out += 0xFF & data[--pos];
out <<= 8;
out += 0xFF & data[--pos];
out <<= 8;
out += 0xFF & data[--pos];
These are just one way to do it. (Disclaimer again: untested.)
I have a spec which reads the next two bytes are signed int.
To read that in java i have the following
When i read a signed int in java using the following code i get a value of 65449
Logic for calculation of unsigned
int a =(byte[1] & 0xff) <<8
int b =(byte[0] & 0xff) <<0
int c = a+b
I believe this is wrong because if i and with 0xff i get an unsigned equivalent
so i removed the & 0xff and the logic as given below
int a = byte[1] <<8
int b = byte[0] << 0
int c = a+b
which gives me the value -343
byte[1] =-1
byte[0]=-87
I tried to offset these values with the way the spec reads but this looks wrong.Since the size of the heap doesnt fall under this.
Which is the right way to do for signed int calculation in java?
Here is how the spec goes
somespec() { xtype 8 uint8 xStyle 16 int16 }
xStyle :A signed integer that represents an offset (in bytes) from the start of this Widget() structure to the start of an xStyle() structure that expresses inherited styles for defined by page widget as well as styles that apply specifically to this widget.
If you value is a signed 16-bit you want a short and int is 32-bit which can also hold the same values but not so naturally.
It appears you wants a signed little endian 16-bit value.
byte[] bytes =
short s = ByteBuffer.wrap(bytes).order(ByteOrder.LITTLE_ENDIAN).getShort();
or
short s = (short) ((bytes[0] & 0xff) | (bytes[1] << 8));
BTW: You can use an int but its not so simple.
// to get a sign extension.
int i = ((bytes[0] & 0xff) | (bytes[1] << 8)) << 16 >> 16;
or
int i = (bytes[0] & 0xff) | (short) (bytes[1] << 8));
Assuming that bytes[1] is the MSB, and bytes[0] is the LSB, and that you want the answer to be a 16 bit signed integer:
short res16 = ((bytes[1] << 8) | bytes[0]);
Then to get a 32 bit signed integer:
int res32 = res16; // sign extends.
By the way, the specification should say which of the two bytes is the MSB, and which is the LSB. If it doesn't and if there aren't any examples, you can't implement it!
Somewhere in the spec it will say how an "int16" is represented. Paste THAT part. Or paste a link to the spec so that we can read it ourselves.
Take a look on DataInputStream.readInt(). You can either steel code from there or just use DataInputStream: wrap your input stream with it and then read typed data easily.
For your convenience this is the code:
public final int readInt() throws IOException {
int ch1 = in.read();
int ch2 = in.read();
int ch3 = in.read();
int ch4 = in.read();
if ((ch1 | ch2 | ch3 | ch4) < 0)
throw new EOFException();
return ((ch1 << 24) + (ch2 << 16) + (ch3 << 8) + (ch4 << 0));
}
I can't compile it right now, but I would do (assuming byte1 and byte0 are realling of byte type).
int result = byte1;
result = result << 8;
result = result | byte0; //(binary OR)
if (result & 0x8000 == 0x8000) { //sign extension
result = result | 0xFFFF0000;
}
if byte1 and byte0 are ints, you will need to make the `&0xFF
UPDATE because Java forces the expression of an if to be a boolean
do you have a way of finding a correct output for a given input?
technically, an int size is 4 bytes, so with just 2 bytes you can't reach the sign bit.
I ran across this same problem reading a MIDI file. A MIDI file has signed 16 bit as well as signed 32 bit integers. In a MIDI file, the most significant bytes come first (big-endian).
Here's what I did. It might be crude, but it maintains the sign. If the least significant bytes come first (little-endian), reverse the order of the indexes.
pos is the position in the byte array where the number starts.
length is the length of the integer, either 2 or 4. Yes, a 2 byte integer is a short, but we all work with ints.
private int convertBytes(byte[] number, int pos, int length) {
int output = 0;
if (length == 2) {
output = ((int) number[pos]) << 24;
output |= convertByte(number[pos + 1]) << 16;
output >>= 16;
} else if (length == 4) {
output = ((int) number[pos]) << 24;
output |= convertByte(number[pos + 1]) << 16;
output |= convertByte(number[pos + 2]) << 8;
output |= convertByte(number[pos + 3]);
}
return output;
}
private int convertByte(byte number) {
return (int) number & 0xff;
}
I have a wave file in 16bit PCM form. I've got the raw data in a byte[] and a method for extracting samples, and I need them in float format, i.e. a float[] to do a Fourier Transform. Here's my code, does this look right? I'm working on Android so javax.sound.sampled etc. is not available.
private static short getSample(byte[] buffer, int position) {
return (short) (((buffer[position + 1] & 0xff) << 8) | (buffer[position] & 0xff));
}
...
float[] samples = new float[samplesLength];
for (int i = 0;i<input.length/2;i+=2){
samples[i/2] = (float)getSample(input,i) / (float)Short.MAX_VALUE;
}
I had a similar solution, but IMHO a little cleaner. Unfortunately, there's no good library method as far as I'm aware: *This assumes the even bytes are the lower bytes
private static float[] bytesToFloats(byte[] bytes) {
float[] floats = new float[bytes.length / 2];
for(int i=0; i < bytes.length; i+=2) {
floats[i/2] = bytes[i] | (bytes[i+1] << 8);
}
return floats;
}
You may try using the ByteBuffer API.

As indicated by hertzsprung the answer by jk. only works for unsigned PCM. On Android PCM16 is big-endian signed, so you need to account for the potentially negative value, encoded in two's complement. This means we need to check whether the high byte is greater than 127 and if so subtract 256 from it first before multiplying it by 256.
private static float[] bytesToFloats(byte[] bytes) {
float[] floats = new float[bytes.length / 2];
for(int i=0; i < bytes.length; i+=2) {
floats[i/2] = bytes[i] | (bytes[i+1] < 128 ? (bytes[i+1] << 8) : ((bytes[i+1] - 256) << 8));
}
return floats;
