How to add the hex values of two or more chars?

I am storing some hex values inside a char array. I would like to sum these hex values and if it is bigger than 1 byte then it should drop the larger bits.

For example I might declare char a = 0x21; char b = 0x07;

and so I would like to add them to get a hex value of 0x28 as it should be, which is stored as a char.

Thanks tkausl. It made me realise the answer will be in int type, and I was confused why it gave me 40.

I was looking for char(a+b).
