Introduction of the Tool:
Welcome to the Convert Binary to Hex converter tool! This tool enables you to convert binary numbers into their equivalent hexadecimal representation. Whether you’re working with binary data in computer science, need to perform conversions, or simply want to understand the hexadecimal equivalents of binary numbers, this tool provides a simple solution.
Steps to Use the Tool:
- Enter Binary Number: Input the binary number you want to convert into hexadecimal into the designated input field.
- Click “Convert to Hexadecimal”: After entering the binary number, click the “Convert to Hexadecimal” button to initiate the conversion process.
- View Converted Result: The tool will display the equivalent hexadecimal value of the input binary number.
Functionality of the Tool:
The tool operates by taking the input binary number and converting it to its equivalent decimal representation using JavaScript’s built-in parseInt()
function with the base parameter set to 2. Then, it converts the decimal number to its hexadecimal representation using the toString()
function with the base parameter set to 16.
