Hello, rubyists.

I need to do the following:

val = 0xe8b8 + (4 * 110).hex
= 0xe8b8 + 1b8

Is there an easy way in Ruby of doing this?

I need to have the result in hex.

val = sprintf("0x%x", 0xe8b8 + 4 * 110)

is one way to do it or

val = "0x" + (0xe8b8 + 4 * 110).to_s(16)

Hope this helps (and isn't too ugly
