Remember to use your "0x".

Hexadecimal is on the rise! Done HTML coloring? Not only does it
support hexadecimal, but it does NOT support decimal. We're not a
decimal people--evidenced by the way we keep time. Remember...unless
you're coding bowling scores, there's no need for decimal.

Ah, it's that time of year again, I see.

A good programmer should be able to handle all number bases up to at least
64 when the need arises, and this certainly includes decimal.

Personally, I favour base 256 (or base 10, as we write it in base 256), but
I don't insist upon it.

All bases are written 10 in their base

Thinkit has been around before, trolling the hex kick.

Indeed he has. Fortunately, he isn't frequent enough to be a real nuisance.
Anyway, he's obviously not a true devotee of the number base he espouses,
or he'd give it one of its proper names: "senidenary", "sedecimal", or
"sexadecimal".

Simon - yes, I know. That was why I said it.

As a long-time devotee of the unary number system I must speak out
against this heresy.

You people shall have to eat your bits, tits, and whatsmore as soon as
the One True Number System comes back en vogue.

Best regards,

Er... you meant 'trits' (trinary digits), perhaps?
