NAME

       PGAGetIntegerFromBinary  -  interpets  a  binary  string  as encoding an integer value and
       returns the integer value it represents.

INPUT PARAMETERS

       ctx    - context variable
       p      - string index
       pop    - symbolic constant of the population the string is in
       start  - starting bit position in the binary representation
       end    - ending bit position in the binary representation

OUTPUT PARAMETERS

       none

SYNOPSIS

EXAMPLE

       Example:
       Get an integer j from bits 10--29 of string p in population PGA_NEWPOP.

       PGAContext *ctx;
       int j, p;
       :
       j = PGAGetIntegerFromBinary(ctx, p, PGA_NEWPOP, 10, 29);
