What is Hexadecimal?

Hexadecimal (or hex) is a base-16 numbering system that simplifies the representation of binary data. It uses 16 symbols: 0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, A, B, C, D, E, F. Each hex digit represents a 4-bit binary sequence, making it much easier to write and read binary numbers.

For example:

  • Binary to Hex: 11010100D4
  • Hex to Binary: FFFF311111111111111110011

Why Use Hexadecimal?

Hexadecimal is commonly used in computing and digital systems because it is more compact and readable than binary. It’s often used for memory addresses, color codes, and representing data in ASCII or Unicode character sets.
