Hobbes

he'll understand.

int num = 42;

System.out.println(
    Integer.toHexString(num)
    ); // "2a"

And there I was thinking there must be something more to println

Cake Fiend

And there I was thinking there must be something more to YORE MA

42 is the answer!

What was the question?

But seriously, how was -x encoded? What was the problem there? Gimme binary!!

Why didn't you mail that to Trojan Hobbes? Is e-mail an insufficient medium for your needs? Please refrain from spamming this board in the future, unless you have something worthwhile to say. That precludes replying to this post by the way, unless you have something pointless to say, in which case feel free.

Damn, I've forgotten how to do a smiley. Oh well...

Hobbes

Well I don't have Trojans email do I?

Anyway trojan, java inverts all the bits not just the high bit for negative numbers.

So I think -0 would be FF then -1 is FE (?) Haven't checked but you get the idea. Doesn't matter really as the Int2Hex function does what I want.

Trojan

Perhaps this helps with smiling problem you have:

That's a bit mad Hobbes, you'd think they'd use standard encoding (2's complement is it?)....

Cheers anyways.

PS Ah g'wan Peter, smile!
