In C there is no data type to store hexadecimal values like float or long or double instead you can store in the integral type of data types. In C programming language, hexadecimal value is represented as 0x or 0X and to input hexadecimal value using scanf which has format specifiers like %x or %X.
There is no special type of data type to store Hexadecimal values in C programming, Hexadecimal number is an integer value and you can store it in the integral type of data types (char, short or int).
To convert a hexadecimal string to a numberUse the ToInt32(String, Int32) method to convert the number expressed in base-16 to an integer. The first argument of the ToInt32(String, Int32) method is the string to convert. The second argument describes what base the number is expressed in; hexadecimal is base 16.
I'm wondering how to convert a hex string to a human readable string (if that makes any sense) this would be my first real encounter with hex values so I'm still learning about them and how to manage them.
I have a program which is reading in data from a file which contains raw packet data (hex) and I need to parse this information so it's human readable.
An example of what I need to do is something like this site does http://home2.paulschou.net/tools/xlate/ where you can put in hex and have it converted to text.
