HEX2BIN() converts a hexadecimal number to its binary equivalent.
Description
HEX2BIN(number, places)
For example,
HEX2BIN("1EE",9) returns 111101110
HEX2BIN("4F",4) returns 1001111
- The Failed to parse (MathML with SVG or PNG fallback (recommended for modern browsers and accessibility tools): Invalid response ("Math extension cannot connect to Restbase.") from server "https://wikimedia.org/api/rest_v1/":): {\displaystyle number} can be maximum of 10 characters (40 bits). If it exceeds the limit, Calci gives a #NUM! error.
- Hexadecimal number uses numbers from 0 to 9 and characters from A to F. Hence, the number argument should be entered in quotes (e.g. "1FF").
- The most significant bit of the number is the sign bit and remaining bits are magnitude bits. A negative number is represented in 2's complement form.
- Calci returns an #ERROR message, if the Failed to parse (MathML with SVG or PNG fallback (recommended for modern browsers and accessibility tools): Invalid response ("Math extension cannot connect to Restbase.") from server "https://wikimedia.org/api/rest_v1/":): {\displaystyle number} is not a valid hexadecimal number.
- Failed to parse (MathML with SVG or PNG fallback (recommended for modern browsers and accessibility tools): Invalid response ("Math extension cannot connect to Restbase.") from server "https://wikimedia.org/api/rest_v1/":): {\displaystyle places} argument is used to return the output with leading zeros. If Failed to parse (MathML with SVG or PNG fallback (recommended for modern browsers and accessibility tools): Invalid response ("Math extension cannot connect to Restbase.") from server "https://wikimedia.org/api/rest_v1/":): {\displaystyle places} argument is not used, 'Calci' uses the minimum number of characters required to display the binary output.
- If Failed to parse (MathML with SVG or PNG fallback (recommended for modern browsers and accessibility tools): Invalid response ("Math extension cannot connect to Restbase.") from server "https://wikimedia.org/api/rest_v1/":): {\displaystyle places} is negative, Calci ignores the places and uses the minimum number of characters required to display the binary output.
- If is not an integer, Calci rounds the value and uses the integer part as input.
- If Failed to parse (MathML with SVG or PNG fallback (recommended for modern browsers and accessibility tools): Invalid response ("Math extension cannot connect to Restbase.") from server "https://wikimedia.org/api/rest_v1/":): {\displaystyle places} is less than the number of output characters, Calci ignores the places and uses the minimum number of characters required to display the output.
