Convert these HEX numbers into ASCII...?
I want to convert HEX to ASCII:
06H
0AH
23H
How to do it???
No no... I didn't mean HEX to DECIMAL... I wanted to convert HEX to ASCII... And one of my friends told me this logic:
Add 30H to the number if the num is smaller than 0AH
Or else add 37H to the number if it is greater than or equal to 0AH.
Is this correct?
So, the answers come:
HEX--------->ASCII
06H=>06 + 30 = 36 (ASCII)
0AH=>0A + 37 = 41
23H=>23 + 37= 5A
Please tell...

HEX (Hexadecimal) is base-16. Like binary is base-2 and octal is base-8. I learned this in school, don't they teach this stuff any more?
You can use a calculator of course, the Windows one has it built in, but if if you need to do it by hand then it's not hard.
06 means "zero sixteens and 6 ones" = 6
0A means "zero sixteens and 1 ten" (A=10) = 10
23 means "2 sixteens and 3 ones" = 35

I dont know exactly, but this may help you if nothing goes=
I assume that HEX to ASCII is similar to HEX to DECIMAL
You may use Windows Calculator.
Goto View, and select Scientific from the menu.
Select "Hex"
Type the number (avoid leading zeroes and trailing "h"s)
means,
06H > 6
0AH > A
23H > 23
then click on "Dec" to know there decimal value.

use the calculator in windows and then change the view to scientific it has a hex convertor on it.
