Techquickie idea, Hexadecimal

[linnoff]

I just went back and watched the old episode on binary, decimal, etc. and it made me think, how does hexadecimal work.

 

I know there are tons of different websites and youtube videos about the system, but the style and format of techquickie videos works very well for me, and I think it would have a pretty decent audience too.

but if you already understand binary, hexadecimal is not that much more complicated - you just combine 4 bits to one hexadecimal number (0000 = 0 up to 1111 = F)

Therefore I doubt this is big enough of a topic.

Same concept as binary. Except its a base-16 number system instead of base 2 (binary) or base 10 (decimal). For example, to count in hex: 1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,A,B,C,D,E,F,10,11, ..., 1A, 1B, 1C, 1D, 1E, 1F, ..., FE, FF, 100.
