OCT2HEX(number, places)

OCT2HEX() converts an octal number to its hexadecimal equivalent.

For Example,

OCT2HEX(300,4) returns 00C0

OCT2HEX(23,5.5) returns 000013

OCT2HEX(777,3) returns 1FF

The $number$ can be upto 9 digits. The most significant bit is the sign bit and remaining bits are magnitude bits.
If the $number$ is negative, Calci ignores the places and returns a 7 digit hexadecimal number.
If the $number$ is not an integer, Calci displays an #NUM! error message.
If the $number$ is an invalid octal number, Calci displays an #NUM! error message.
$places$ argument can be omitted. Calci displays the hexadecimal output with minimum number of characters necessary.
$places$ is used for padding the output with leading '0's'.
Calci ignores the $places$ , if the output is more than mentioned 'places'.
If $places$ is non-numeric or negative, Calci displays an error message.
If $places$ is not an integer, Calci truncates the 'places' value.
A number preceding with '0' (e.g. 0377) should be written in text format ("0377") to avoid confusion with hexadecimal numbers.
