How it works
Enter a number, then choose the source base (e.g. 10) and the target base (e.g. 16). The tool first resolves the value to decimal, then converts it to the target base. For example, 255 (base 10) becomes FF (base 16). For bases above 10, letters act as digits: A=10, B=11 ... Z=35. This lets you handle everything from hexadecimal (base 16) color codes to base-36 identifiers on a single screen.
Frequently asked questions
What is the highest base I can convert to?
Both the source and target base can be between 2 and 36. The upper limit is 36 because digits are represented with 0-9 plus A-Z, which gives 36 distinct symbols.
What does hexadecimal FF mean?
FF equals 255 in base 16 (F=15, so 15x16 + 15). It appears often in color codes and byte values; the tool converts it to decimal or any other base instantly.
