Solution

  • Function to convert decimal to hexadecimal

    Just pass the number you want to concert to the hex() method and you'll get back the value in base16 (hexadecimal).

    This is an example :

    def decimal_to_hexadecimal(dec):
    first_v = str(dec)[0]
    decimal = int(dec)
    if first_v == '-': 
        hex_dec = hex(decimal)[3:]
    else:
        hex_dec = hex(decimal)[2:]
    return hex_dec

result = decimal_to_hexadecimal(2325552)

print('result : ', result)

    Output

    result : 237c30
