OCT2HEX Formula Syntax

=OCT2HEX("37")

Example Use Case

Converting an octal number to hexadecimal for number base conversion

Understanding the OCT2HEX Formula

The OCT2HEX function in Excel converts an octal (base-8) number to hexadecimal (base-16) format. It's a number base conversion tool for digital systems work—like translating between different number representations in computer science, programming, or digital electronics.

OCT2HEX("37") returns "1F", converting the octal number 37 to its hexadecimal equivalent. It takes number and optional places arguments, supporting octal integers—useful for digital systems design or computer science applications that work with multiple number bases.

Why Use OCT2HEX?

OCT2HEX streamlines multi-base conversions—think computer architecture or low-level programming. Its direct conversion ability eliminates the need for intermediate steps (like converting to decimal first), making it valuable for technical applications that require working with both octal and hexadecimal representations.

Example with Sample Data

Octal Number, [Places]	Formula	Result
"37"	=OCT2HEX("37")	1F
"10", 4	=OCT2HEX("10", 4)	0008
"177"	=OCT2HEX("177")	7F

OCT2HEX translates number systems: octal 37 becomes hex 1F, octal 10 becomes 8 (padded to 4 places as 0008). It provides direct conversion between these important computing formats. It's a digital notation converter.
