Serialized Data Buffer

Code

#include <stdio.h>
#include <stdint.h>

void build_packet(uint8_t command, uint16_t value, uint8_t status, uint32_t checksum) {
    uint8_t buffer[10];
    buffer[0] = 0xa5;
    buffer[1] = command;
    buffer[2] = (uint8_t)(value & 0xff);
    buffer[3] = (uint8_t)(value >> 8);
    buffer[4] = status; 
    buffer[5] = (uint8_t)(checksum & 0xff);
    buffer[6] = (uint8_t)((checksum >> 8) & (0xff));
    buffer[7] = (uint8_t)((checksum >> 16) & (0xff));
    buffer[8] = (uint8_t)(checksum >> 24);
    buffer[9] = 0x5a;

    for(int i = 0; i < 10; i++){
        printf("%d ", buffer[i]);
    }
}

int main() {
    uint8_t cmd, status;
    uint16_t val;
    uint32_t crc;

    scanf("%hhu %hu %hhu %u", &cmd, &val, &status, &crc);
    build_packet(cmd, val, status, crc);
    return 0;
}
