C++ Manipulator hex

C++ manipulator hex function is used to set the basefield format flag for the str stream.

When we set basefield to hex, then integer values inserted into the stream are expressed in hexadecimal base (i.e. radix 16). For input streams, when this flag is set, then extracted values are also expected to be expressed in hexadecimal base.

Syntax

Parameter

str: stream object whose format flag is affected.

Return value

It returns argument str.

Data Races

Data races may cause when modifies str concurrent access to the same stream object.

Exceptions

str is in a valid state, if an exception is thrown.

Example 1

Let's see the simple example to demonstrate the use of hex:

Output:

2710

Example 2

Let's see another simple example:

Output:

24
18
30

Example 3

Let's see another simple example:

Output:

The number 42 in octal:   52
The number 42 in decimal: 42
The number 42 in hex:     2a
Parsing "2A" as hex gives 42
