Writing non-decimal numbers Numbers in non-decimal systems, referred to as binary integers, are written preceded by the # symbol („â) in the calculator. To select the current base to be used for binary integers, choose either HEX (adecimal), DEC (imal), OCT (al), or BIN (ary) in the BASE menu. For example, if is selected, binary integers will be a hexadecimal numbers, e.g., #53, #A5B, etc. As different systems are selected, the numbers will be automatically converted to the new current base. To write a number in a particular system, start the number with # and end with either h (hexadecimal), d (decimal), o (octal), or b (binary), examples: HEX DEC OCT BIN Reference For additional details on numbers from different bases see Chapter 19 in the calculator's user's guide.
