A number system with base 16, using the digits 0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, A, B, C, D, E and F, useful in computing as numbers in hexadecimal can be stored in four bits. Informal short form used in computing: hex
Refers to a base sixteen number system using the characters 0 through 9 and A through F to represent the values Machine language programs are often written in hexadecimal notation
hexadecimal numbers are based on the number 16 and are mainly used on computers (hexa- (from , from hex ) + decimal)
Hexadecimal describes a base-16 number system That is, it describes a numbering system containing 16 sequential numbers as base units (including 0) before adding a new position for the next number The hexadecimal numbers are 0-9 and then use the letters A-F
(adj ) Characteristic of the numbering system that uses 16 as its base The marks 0-9 and a-f (or equivalently A-F) represent the digits 0 through 15 In programs written in the JavaTM programming language, hexadecimal numbers must be preceded with 0x See also octal
A system of counting using sixteen digits, "0" through "9" and "A" through "F" (base 16) Programmers use this system as a convenient way of organizing groups of binary numbers
A numbering system using a base number of 16 and including the ten decimal digits (0 to 9) along with six alpha digits (A to F) Thus, a digit is available to represent each of the possible values of a 4-bit binary digit
The hexadecimal number system has 16 as its base, in contrast to the decimal system (base 10) Hexadecimal refers to whole numbers in positional notation with 16 as the base The first ten digits are represented by 0 through 9, and the last six digits are represented by A, B, C, D, E, and F Computer memory addresses are conveniently expressed in hexadecimal notation since the word length is a multiple of four Four bits can be expressed with one hexadecimal digit For example, 1011001010000111 binary is B287 in hexadecimal notation A hexadecimal number is the 1-byte equivalent of an EBCDIC character
A numbering system using a base number of 16 and including the ten decimal digits (0 to 9) along with six alpha digits (A to F) Thus a digit is available to represent each of the possible values of a 4-bit binary digit
The numbering system that uses 16 as its base The marks 0-9 and a-f (or equivalently A-F) represent the digits 0 through 15 In Java programs, hexadecimal numbers must be preceded with 0x See also octal
Base 16 A number notation that uses 16 possible values, 0-9 and A-F The most common notation used in the computer world
When you define colors for backgrounds, links, fonts and whatever else in HTML, you can either define them with a word (i e "white") or the hexadecimal equivalent The hexadecimal notation represents each RGB (red, green & blue) component of a color in two characters, 00 to FF, rather than three characters, 000 to 256 The hexadecimal equivalent of white is 000000, and black is FFFFFF A very large GIF that contains a complete list of browser safe colors and their hexadecimal designations is here
Number representation in base 16 In base 16, the digits 0 to 9 and the letters A to F are used A represents 10 (base 10), B represents 11 (base 10), and so on Digit positions represent successive powers of 16
A system of numbers to the base 16 Hexadecimal digits range from 0 through 9 and A through F
Also called just "hex," this is a base-16 counting system used by programmers and other computer nerds The system simply uses the first six letters of the alphabet as extra digits So 'F' is equal to fifteen (have to start at zero, after all), and '10' is equal to sixteen Since sixteen is a power of two, this makes writing huge binary numbers much more elegant For example, a four byte number written in binary as: 10011101 00011100 01100010 10110000 would just be 9D1C62B0 in hex Programmers learn to clump each two digits of hex and think of them as a byte For a more detailed discussion, see the page on number systems
A base 16 numbering system consisting of the alphanumerical characters 0-9 and A-F A-F represent the decimal numbers 10-15 Hexadecimals are used on the web to specify pixel colour values
A numbering system which is based on 16 rather than 10 as in decimal The hexadecimal numbers therefore go 0,1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,A,B,C,D,E,F,10 A hexadecimal number needs 4 binary bits to represent it Often abbreviated to hex
(pronounced hex-uh-DES-I-mull): Numbers expressed in base sixteen Integers larger than 9 are expressed as sequential letters A through F In hexadecimal, the number ten is written A The number sixteen is expressed as 10 - that is, one sixteen and no ones, just as 10 in the standard decimal system represents one ten and no ones Why would anyone want to express numbers in base sixteen? Because that's how many bits there are in a 16-bit word, so using hexadecimal allowed programmers to denote a specific bit in any word as a single digit, 0 through F Back in the days of eight-bit machines, programmers used octal, or base eight, numbers
A numbering system which uses a base of 16 The first ten digits are 0-9 and the next six are A-F Hexadecimal numbers are used to color web pages For example, the hexadecimal equivalent for the color white is #FFFFFF
The base 16 numbering system, as opposed to our decimal (base 10) system The numerals 0-9 and letters a-f (or A-F) represent the numerals 0 through 15 In Java programs, hexadecimal numbers are preceded with 0x
A column placing method of representing data to the base of 16, using decimal numbersdigits 0-9 and letters A to F for decimal values 10 - 15 For example, 1010 = A16 and 2210 = 6F16 Used as a convenient short hand notation for representing memory 16 and 32 bit memory addresses
Base 16 notation, where the digits are 0-9 and A-F, with `A' representing 10, `B' representing 11, and so on up to `F' for 15 Hexadecimal numbers are written in C using a leading `0x', to indicate their base Thus, 0x12 is 18 (one times 16 plus 2)
The base 16 number system using 16 symbols (0 to 9 and A to F) to represent 16 decimal numerals (0 to 15)
A system of numbers to the base sixteen; hexadecimal digits range from 0 (zero) through 9 (nine) and A (ten) through F (fifteen)
A number and counting system based on 16 The digits are 0 through F In computers, Hex numbers are derived from the binary numbers stored on disk and in RAM The advantage of Hex is that more information can be stored in less space Hex 00 is the same as Dec 00 However, Hex FF represents Dec 256
