- Engine tested 4 published cases
- Named expert review Not performed
- Calculation version 1.1.0
- Definition
- **Hexadecimal (base 16)** uses digits `0–9` and `A–F`. It packs four bits per digit, so engineers use it for addresses, colors, and byte dumps. Converting hex means rewriting the same value as binary, decimal, or text.
- What it calculates
- Hexadecimal conversion hub: hex to binary (4-bit expand), hex to decimal (powers of 16), and hex to ASCII. Methods overview and links.
