Typecasting Concept

[uranyumx]

Hello,

I am casting 16 bit value to 8 bit values with typecast(uint16(app.X.Value), 'uint8');

While I was printing uint16(app.X.Value), I got 10 which is my input value. Then, after casting with typecast(uint16(app.X.Value), 'uint8');, I got 103 0 values. So, how does the program generate these numbers that I want to address?

Thank you,

typecast() is a MATLAB function. Why are you posting in microcontrollers section?

It would be helpful if you tell the full context, preferably post a code example that demonstrates the observed effect.
