<p>Automatically generated page update</p> <p><b>New page</b></p><div>&lt;p&gt;The $C2X function translates each byte within a character string into two-byte hexadecimal-equivalent characters. $C2X returns a character string that is twice as long as the original string. The maximum input length is 126 bytes. If the input length is more than 126 bytes, a null string is returned.&lt;/p&gt;<br /> &lt;b&gt;Syntax&lt;/b&gt;<br /> &lt;p&gt;The format for the $C2X function is:&lt;/p&gt;<br /> &lt;p class=&quot;code&quot;&gt;$C2X(charstr) <br /> &lt;/p&gt;<br /> &lt;p&gt;where charstr is the input character string (either a %variable or a quoted literal) &lt;/p&gt;<br /> &lt;b&gt;Example 1&lt;/b&gt;<br /> &lt;p class=&quot;code&quot;&gt;PRINT $C2X(&#039;YES&#039;) <br /> &lt;/p&gt;<br /> &lt;p&gt;results in this output:&lt;/p&gt;<br /> &lt;p class=&quot;code&quot;&gt;E8C5E2 <br /> &lt;/p&gt;<br /> &lt;b&gt;Example 2&lt;/b&gt;<br /> &lt;p&gt;This example produces a decimal to hexadecimal conversion:&lt;/p&gt;<br /> &lt;p class=&quot;code&quot;&gt;PROCEDURE D2X<br /> B<br /> PRINT $C2X($BINARY($READ(&#039;Enter D2X decimal value&#039;),31)) <br /> END<br /> END PROCEDURE<br /> &lt;/p&gt;<br /> &lt;p&gt;resulting in this output:&lt;/p&gt;<br /> &lt;p class=&quot;code&quot;&gt;$$ENTER D2X DECIMAL VALUE &lt;--- $READ prompt<br /> 64565 &lt;--- User enters some decimal input<br /> 0000FC35 &lt;--- Procedure prints output value in hexadecimal<br /> &lt;/p&gt;<br /> [[Category:SOUL $functions]]</div>
