How to Convert from Decimal to Hexadecimal in Golang 1.20
In this video we are going to generate source code for the GoLang Program, How to Convert from Decimal to Hexadecimal using chatGPT.
After generating we will verify and run the generated code.
IMPORTANT NOTE on SOURCE CODE: only source code that are acceptable by the youtube description box will be displayed.
##############SOURCE CODE#########################
package main
import "fmt"
func decimalToHexadecimal(decimal int) string {
hexadecimal := ""
for decimal > 0 {
remainder := decimal % 16
switch {
case remainder < 10:
hexadecimal = fmt.Sprintf("%d%s", remainder, hexadecimal)
default:
hexadecimal = fmt.Sprintf("%c%s", remainder-10+'A', hexadecimal)
}
decimal /= 16
}
return hexadecimal
}
func main() {
decimal := 899
hexadecimal := decimalToHexadecimal(decimal)
fmt.Printf("Decimal %d is equivalent to hexadecimal %s", decimal, hexadecimal)
}
Below is the explanation for the program:
The decimalToHexadecimal function takes an integer parameter decimal and returns its hexadecimal representation as a string.
It does this by repeatedly dividing decimal by 16 and keeping track of the remainders,
which are converted to hexadecimal digits and concatenated to the beginning of the hexadecimal string using the fmt.Sprintf function.
The switch statement is used to handle the special case of remainders greater than 9, which correspond to the hexadecimal digits A-F.
In the main function, we call decimalToHexadecimal with the decimal value 305, and print the result using the fmt.Printf function.
You can change the value of decimal to convert any other decimal number to hexadecimal.
