Yeah but you would still have to divide the 8 bit decimal up in two 4 bit
decimals before you can use your memorization, unless you want to memorize
all 256 combinations in decimal, hex and binary - and maybe octal's too :-)

Subject: RE: BCMSN Hex- IP to MAC
it is a nice trick, but too much work for a lazy guy like myself. :->
�
I just memorize the table - it works a lot faster
�
we all know what 1-9 is in binary, or can count it up easily.
�
A=1010=10
B=1011=11
C=1100=12
D=1101=13
E=1110=14
F=1111=15

write it down on the paper before you start the test. refer to it when
necessary.

Cool trick. Hadn't seen that one before. As I look at it, it actually does
the same thing as the method I posted, but skips the binary conversion step
(splitting the one octet into two quartets is equivalent to dividing by 16).

you can also go from decimal to hex by dividing by 16 example given 235
�
235 / 16 = 14 with a remainder of 11
14 in hex is E
11 in hex is B
answer EB
�
Another example 149
168/16 =�10 with a remainder of 8
10 in hex is A
8 in hex is 8
answer�A8 hex
�
To convert hex to decimal is just as easy take the left most hex digit and
multiply it by 16 then add the right digit
EB in hex
E * 16
E=14
14*16 = 224
B=11
224 + 11 = 235
