This template makes it easy to convert from decimal to hexadecimal.
Usage
Use: {{Hexadecimal|x}} where x is the decimal number to be converted to a hexadecimal. Decimals and fractions will be rounded down. The number is, by default, formatted with a final subscript 16 to display the base. An optional second parameter of |hex will replace the base with "hex".
To opt out of the subscript, use a second parameter of |no (or equivalently |none), which also forces the display of at least two hexadecimal digits (instead of just one for values lower than 16).
To show a single digit, without the subscript and without the 0 prefix, set the second parameter to |digit.
Examples
To convert a number to a base 16:
{{Hexadecimal|0}}→ 016{{Hexadecimal|15}}→ F16{{Hexadecimal|3256}}→ CB816
To convert a number to a base hex:
{{Hexadecimal|0|hex}}→ 0hex{{Hexadecimal|15|hex}}→ Fhex{{Hexadecimal|3256|hex}}→ CB8hex
To display single digits:
{{Hexadecimal|0|digit}}→ 0{{Hexadecimal|10|digit}}→ A{{Hexadecimal|15|digit}}→ F
To convert an RGB color from decimal code to hex code:
{{Hexadecimal|255|no}}{{Hexadecimal|165|no}}{{Hexadecimal|0|no}}→ FFA500
