note 86673 added to function.dechex

I was confused by dechex's size limitation. Here is my solution to the problem. It supports much bigger values, as well as signs. function dec_to_hex($dec) { $sign = ""; // suppress errors if( $dec < 0){ $sign = "-"; $dec = abs($dec); } $hex = Array( 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' ); do { $h = $hex[($dec%16)] . $h; $dec /= 16; } while( $dec >= 1 ); return $sign . $h; } ---- Server IP: 69.147.83.197 Probable Submitter: 75.38.150.153 ---- Manual Page -- http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.dechex.php Edit -- https://master.php.net/note/edit/86673 Del: integrated -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/86673/integrated Del: useless -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/86673/useless Del: bad code -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/86673/bad+code Del: spam -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/86673/spam Del: non-english -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/86673/non-english Del: in docs -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/86673/in+docs Del: other reasons-- https://master.php.net/note/delete/86673 Reject -- https://master.php.net/note/reject/86673 Search -- https://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php
