hex number values

jdolecki

What do I have to put in front of the hex number so the propeller will reconize it as a hex value?

WAKEUP = 0x02,
STANDBY = 0x04,
RESET = 0x06,
START = 0x08,
STOP = 0x0a,

Use a dollar sign, and I'm assuming you are doing SPIN or PASM.

$ff = 255 = 111111

You can also put a delimiter in there.

$FF = 255 = 11_1111

I'll add my two bits


11

($FF = 255 = 11111111 = 1111_1111)

The forum mangled my post! Weird.

I think it eats percent signs! I remember others having that problem.....I, of course, forgot to use percent signs in the first place to make my notation correct!

11_1111

EDIT: CODE wrappers don't even help. What is stranger, when I did the above in advanced edit, it had a percent sign in my preview text but had removed it from the window I was typing my text into.

Obviously, results including percent signs are no long determinent.

The forum software does strange things with percent signs unless you use the "Basic Editor". It can be changed under "General Settings" after selecting "Settings" from the top right.

$FF = 255 = %1111_1111

Thanks! I'll try that next time.

If you're converting a program for C notation (e.g., 0xFF), simply search and replace the 0x with $ for Spin or PASM.
