To form this image digitally, we would make the black pixels (represented by X’s) a ONE bit and the white areas
a ZERO bit:
 
000000000011110000000000 
000000001111111100000000 
000000011000000110000000 
000000110011110011000000 
000001100011110001100000 
000011000011110000110000 
000001101011110001100000 
000000110011110011000000 
000000011000000110000000 
000000001111111100000000 
000000000011110000000000 
 
Now we can separate these out into bytes with each byte representing 8 bits, or pixels. This would be a true binary 
representation of the bitmap of our image.

Since most programmers do not work in Binary, we’ll convert the binary image into HEX;
 
0x00 0x3C 0x00 
0x00 0xFF 0x00 
0x01 0x81 0x80 
0x03 0x3C 0xC0 
0x06 0x3C 0x60 
0x0C 0x3C 0x30 
0x06 0x3C 0x60 
0x01 0x81 0x80 
0x00 0xFF 0x00 
0x00 0x3C 0x00
