Converting Octal to Decimal for CC signature does not work

Hello I’m trying to use the the CC signature
image
The normal signature works but the CC signature doesn’t in my example i have m_signature == 10 which came from CC = 12 which is octal and converted it to decimal = 10. is there a way or a specific code for reading CC signatures? because i want to detect a CC signature then print some text on my LCD, is there a way for me to do this? Thank you in advance!

Hello,
This tends to confuse people quite a bit. Just remember that numbers are numbers and that 12 octal is exactly the same as 10 decimal. When programming the Arduino, you can actually put a 0 in front of a number and the C compiler will treat it as octal. So 012==10 is a true statement. (That is, 12(octal) is equal to 10(decimal)) You can also bring up a converter https://www.rapidtables.com/convert/number/decimal-to-octal.html

if you prefer that things be represented in decimal.

Hope this helps.
