The HP 48 lets you to do binary arithmetic—operations that work

with binary integers.

Binary Integers and Bases

On the HP 48, binary integer objects contain from 1 to 64 bits,
depending on the current

wordstze.

You can enter and display binary

integers in decimal (base

10

), hexadecimal (base 16), octal (base

8

), or

binary (base 2). The

current base

determines which base is used to

display binary integers on the stack.

The # delimiter precedes a binary integer. A d, h, o, or b following
the binary integer indicates its base—for example, # 182d, # B
