Take the 2-minute tour ×  General information about the task:  I
need to write the function on C language which takes a byte
array (it reperesents package) parse it, do some stuff and
return a changed byte array.  My approach:      char*
ParsePackage(const char* byteArray); typedef struct     char
name[4];     float value; } packageStructure;  I use the struct
packageStructure to which a byteArray is casted, then I am
trying to get data by accessing fields of that struct:
"filename.cpp"  include "filename.cpp" char* ParsePackage(const
char* byteArray)     packageStructure* tmp = (packageStructure*)
byteArray;     // get values of structure fields and do some
staff with them:     return (char*)modifiedByteArray;  I am not
satisfied with the result, because the whole data from byte
array is written to the first field of the struct, which is a
name, to the second filed goes some random value;  So expected
questions here are: that I am doing wrong (how to alter my
approach to make it work)? Can you offer other me
