OCT2HEX
Definition of OCT2HEX
Converts a signed octal number to signed hexadecimal format.
Sample Usage
OCT2HEX(37,8)
OCT2HEX(A2)
Syntax
OCT2HEX(signed_octal_number, [significant_digits])
signed_octal_number
- The signed 30-bit octal value to be converted to signed hexadecimal, provided as a string.The most significant bit of
signed_octal_number
is the sign bit; that is, negative numbers are represented in two's complement format.For this function, this value has a maximum of 3777777777 if positive, and a minimum of 4000000000 if negative.
If
signed_octal_number
is provided as a valid octal number, it will automatically be converted to the appropriate string input. For example,OCT2HEX(177)
andOCT2HEX("177")
yield the same result:7F
.
significant_digits
- [ OPTIONAL ] - The number of significant digits to ensure in the result.If this is greater than the number of significant digits in the result, the result is left-padded with zeros until the total number of digits reaches
significant_digits
.This value is ignored if the most significant bit of
signed_octal_number
is1
; that is, if the expressedsigned_octal_number
is greater than or equal to 4000000000.
Notes
As with any octal value, only the digits 0-7 are valid. Digits outside of this will cause
OCT2HEX
to return a#NUM!
error.If the number of digits required is greater than the specified
significant_digits
, the#NUM!
error is returned.
