Hexadecimal Numbers
Hexadecimal numbers are base-16 numbers. Instead of only
using the digits "0" through "9" to represent a number, the letters "A"
through "F" are also used. Table 3 shows the value of the individual
digits in the hexadecimal numbering system. When we write a
hexadecimal number we add an upper or lower case "H" to the end
of it to indicate that it is a hexadecimal number. Table 4 can be used
to convert a number between 0 and 255 into its hexadecimal
representation. Let us use 90 as an example. Find 90 in the middle
of the table. The "5" on the left side of the row containing 90 will be
the first digit of our number. The "A" on the top of the column
containing 90 will be the second digit. All we have to do now is add
an "H" the end of the number. So the hexadecimal representation of
90 is "5Ah".
