A really nice hex calculator

I’ve been through several solutions for hex calculators. Lately I’ve been using xalc. This a very nice tool and quickly allows you to do about anything you need with numbers used in a computer. It shows you dec, hex, and bit representations, and allows you to use convenient shortcuts like 1G.

To install, I do: sudo pip install xalc

Example of use:

this is pretty handy, I use bc for simplicity reasons and for hex this might be the answer.

I’ve never used bc much, but looks useful for quick calcs.

Here are quite a few more ideas:

Very neat – I like how you can enter the number in either dec, oct, hex, or bits.
