HEX2OCT converts a hexadecimal number to its octal equivalent.
Description
HEX2OCT(number,places)
For Example,
HEX2OCT("A",4) returns 0012
HEX2OCT("FA",6) returns 000372
HEX2OCT("09") returns 0000000011
- 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} must be a hexadecimal number. Hexadecimal number uses digits 0 to 9 and characters A to F. The number can also be entered in text format (e.g "1F").
- The most significant bit represents the 'sign' of the number. Negative numbers are represented using 2's complement notation.
- A number preceding with '0' (e.g 013) should be written in text format ("013") to avoid confusion with octal numbers.
- Calci returns an #ERROR message 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 number} is greater than 'FFFFFFF'.
- 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 number} is negative, Calci ignores the places and displays 10 digit octal 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 not an integer, it is truncated.
- 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} are non-numeric, Calci returns an #ERROR message.
- 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 displays #NUM! error message.
- 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 omitted, Calci displays the 10 digit octal output by adding the leading zeros (if required).
- 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 digits required by the output, Calci ignores the places and uses the minimum number of digits required to display the octal output.
