How to write to external file using one boolean bit a time.

Question

I am trying to create and write to an external file by only using one boolean bit at a time from a loop. I can't seem to get the boolean bits into the byte array and I am getting error for the array being out of limit.

Hi Tom Your buffer size is 1  but your tring to write 32 bits.. So u r getting that error. here is my code static void Main(string[] args) { bool tif = true ; byte[] buffer = BitConverter.GetBytes(tif); FileInfo ap = new FileInfo( tempii.txt ); string filePath = ap.FullName; string destinationPath = Path.Combine( C:\check  Path.GetFileName(filePath)); using (Stream output = File.OpenWrite(destinationPath)) { int bits = 32; while (bits > 0) { for ( int i = 1; i //4 random bytes { if (tif == true ) { tif = false ; goto A; } if (tif == false ) tif = true ; A:; output.Write(buffer 0 1); } } } See the below syntax for Stream.Write from msdn public abstract void Write( byte[] buffer int offset int count ) here  buffer Type: System.Byte[] An array of bytes. This method copies count bytes from buffer to the current stream. offset Type: System.Int32 The zero-based byte offset in buffer at which to begin copying bytes to the current stream. count Type: System.Int32 The number of bytes to be written to the current stream.
