Is there a simple way to convert numbers between these two bases, or do I need to write code to do it!

Thanks.

Can you please give an example of what kind of conversion do you need? Some kind of pseudo code which imitates desired behavior.

I found that SPL already converts hex to decimal automatically. If I run the line
#.output(ffh) it will print 255. If I run the line g = ffh, g will equal 255

What I want is a function that will convert decimal to hex, so that when my Unicode reader returns the decimal value of a character, I can convert that to a high and low byte for the user. They can then use your hex byte system to reproduce the character.

In other words a decimal value would need to be converted as follows. t = hex(255). The output should then be “ffh”. I assume the hex function would have to return a string value; otherwise if t was treated as a numeric variable, as soon as I tried to read t, its value would be decimal 255.

I found the following website that gives me the formula in C. I could try to translate that into SPL if there is no current function to do it.

This is done using #.str function:

#.output(#.str(255,"X"))

SPL has very advanced formatting options which are given in Appendix 1.
