Number Base Converter: a worked example

You are debugging a bitmask and need to see the value 255 as hex, binary, and octal at once.

Decimal

255
Number Base Converter produces

Other bases

Hex:    0xFF
Binary: 0b11111111
Octal:  0o377

255 is 2⁸−1, so it is all ones across 8 bits (`11111111`) and the single-byte maximum, instantly recognisable once you see the binary. The converter handles arbitrary bases 2–36 and large values without floating-point rounding, which matters when a 64-bit flag silently loses precision in less careful tools.

Frequently asked questions

Can I enter negative numbers?

The tool converts unsigned values. For signed representations like two's complement, convert the positive magnitude and apply the sign convention yourself.

What is the largest number supported?

The converter handles numbers up to JavaScript's safe integer limit (2^53 - 1). For larger values, results may lose precision.

Private by design

Conversions run on your device in JavaScript. The values you enter are never sent over the network.
