ah and from binery to decimal and decimal o binary etc
Ask the Wookie.

Well, you need to understand these are all "base" systems:
Hex: Base 16
Decimal: Base 10
Binary: Base 2
It's just a matter of conversion. I can go through it step by step. So, say, you have a number: 188. You want it in Binary.
Find a power of 2 that is the highest that will fit into your number. For this, it would be 128. (2 to the 7th). Make 8 0's:
0000 0000
And since you can put 128 into 188, change the 1st 0 to a 1 and take away 128. It's now 60, and you have 128 taken away (show here):
1000 0000
You can put 32 (2 to the 5th) into it, so now change it to:
1010 0000
Now it's 28; you can put 16 (2 to the 4th) into it, so change it:
1011 0000
Now it's 12, you can put 2 to the 3rd (8) into it:
1011 1000
You've got 4, which is a power of 2. When your number IS a power of two, you can stop.
1011 1100
Therefore, decimal 188 in binary is:
1011 1100.
Now let's convert 188 (decimal) to HEX.
It's more difficult, so pay attention.
Now that you have 188, find how many times 16 goes into it. For this number, it goes in 11 times (176). In Hex, 0 to 9 are shown normally, but it doesnt go over to the next column; it does so at 16. 10 is A, 11 is B, 12 is C, 13 is D, 14 is E, and 15 is F. Since we have 11 16's in 188, your first symbol will be 'B', and since it is under 256 (16 x 16), we know it must be 2 columns or under. Thus, we can add a 0:
B0
Now, the remainder is 12. Look at that mini-chart up there. 12 is C. Change the 0 to C:
BC
And that is 188 in Hex! A little more tricky, but still easy.
Conversion from Binary to Hex is quite simple.
Did you see how I grouped my binary digits into 4's? I did that for a reason.
1111 1111
This is 255 in binary.
FF
Is 255 in Hex.
1111 0000 1111
This is 3855 in binary.
F0F
This is 3855 in Hex.
See any resemblance? You should. For each grouping of 4, add 8 for the first digit, 4 for the 2nd, 2 for the 3rd, and 1 for the last. You should end up with a digit between 0 and 15. You can convert it to hex:
0 - 0
1 - 1
2 - 2
3 - 3
4 - 4
5 - 5
6 - 6
7 - 7
8 - 8
9 - 9
10 - A
11 - B
12 - C
13 - D
14 - E
15 - F
Therefore 1111 becomes F, 1101 becomes D, 0101 becomes 5, etc. etc.
For partial groups (ex. 3, 2, or 1 number), start from the right. So 1 number, that number is either 0 or 1, and the same in hex. 2 numbers can be 0, 1, 2, or 3. 3 numbers can represent 0 - 7.
So, our example.
1011 1100 is 188 in binary.
Remember the grouping:
8021 8400
Now add up:
11 12
And convert with the chart.
BC
How about Hex to binary? Do a reverse lookup!
0 - 0
1 - 1
2 - 2
3 - 3
4 - 4
5 - 5
6 - 6
7 - 7
8 - 8
9 - 9
10 - A
11 - B
12 - C
13 - D
14 - E
15 - F
So, BC.
B = 11
C = 12
Convert 11 and 12 to binary:
11:
1000
1010
1011
12:
1000
1100
Therefore, BC in binary is 1011 1100.
Hex to decimal is easy! (aren't they all?)
Simply do the reverse lookup, skipping conversion to binary.
0 - 0
1 - 1
2 - 2
3 - 3
4 - 4
5 - 5
6 - 6
7 - 7
8 - 8
9 - 9
10 - A
11 - B
12 - C
13 - D
14 - E
15 - F
BC:
B = 11
C = 12
But one thing you must remember, the rightmost character is multiplied by 16 ^ 0, the 2nd rightmost 16 ^ 1, the 3rd 16 ^ 2, etc. So:
11 * 16 ^ 1 = 11 * 16 = 176
12 * 16 ^ 0 = 12 * 1 = 12
Now, add them up:
176 + 12 = 188
Now the last, binary to decimal.
1011 1100
As in the binary to hex example, value them:
8021 8400
And add them all up:
11 12
As in the hex to decimal example, multiply the rightmost by 16 ^ 0, the 2nd rightmost by 16 ^ 1, etc...
11 * 16 ^ 1 = 11 * 16 = 176
12 * 16 ^ 0 = 12 * 1 = 12
And add those two together.
176 + 12 = 188
