Well, what I read was an easy way to convert binary to hex (so you have to do dec to binary prior to that, which is also simple)...
Dec -> Bin 250 -> 11111010 (using that 256 128 64 32 16 8 4 2 1 converting scheme) What you got to do is get the binary number and separate it in groups of 4 digits from right to left, like Bin -> Bin Separated 11111010 -> 1111 1010 Then, you have to sum the values of the one's using the 2^0 (1), 2^1 (2), 2^2 (4), and 2^3 (8): Powers 8421 Bin 1010 ---------------------- Sum 8+2 = 10 Hex is also know as Base 16, because it goes 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, A, B, C, D, E, F, 11, 12, 13... so, instead of 10, the value in Hex is A Now, doing with the other part of the separated bin Powers 8421 Bin 1111 ---------------------- Sum 8+4+2+1 = 16 So now instead of 16, we have F. Concatenating the values you have 250 (dec) = 11111010 (bin) = FA (hex) I hope it's clear :) Persio ----- Original Message ----- From: "Ole Drews Jensen" To: Sent: Tuesday, March 12, 2002 11:10 AM Subject: RE: Decimal to Hex [7:37939] > It's really not that hard to convert back and forth between hex, dec and > binary once you learn how to do it.
