note 73156 added to function.hexdec

Here's another hex to decimal converter... dunno if it'll be useful to anyone, but this one just makes use of the BC functions so this thing will take any sized hex (as a string) and return an any sized decimal number (as a string) <?php function bchexdec($hex) { $hex = strtolower($hex); $convert = '0'; $hexMap = array(0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 'a' => 10, 'b' => 11, 'c' => 12, 'd' => 13, 'e' => 14, 'f' => 15); for($i = 0; $i < strlen($hex); $i++) { $hexPower = ((strlen($hex) - 1) - $i); $curNum = bcmul($hexMap[$hex[$i]], (bcpow(16, $hexPower))); $convert = bcadd($curNum, $convert); } return($convert); } ?> example: <?php echo bchexdec("6d4eb366b3b28e5f56cfe0b67d7607797f71e8816713aad4"); // prints 2680210260981918719218501443543552847839175168051723348692 ?> ---- Server IP: 203.220.0.234 Probable Submitter: 60.229.9.38 ---- Manual Page -- http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.hexdec.php Edit -- https://master.php.net/note/edit/73156 Del: integrated -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/73156/integrated Del: useless -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/73156/useless Del: bad code -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/73156/bad+code Del: spam -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/73156/spam Del: non-english -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/73156/non-english Del: in docs -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/73156/in+docs Del: other reasons-- https://master.php.net/note/delete/73156 Reject -- https://master.php.net/note/reject/73156 Search -- https://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php
