Python hex() Built in Function

The hex() function in Python is a built-in function that converts an integer to its corresponding hexadecimal number and returns it as a string. The hexadecimal representation is in lowercase prefixed with 0x. For example:

>>> hex(255) # convert 255 to hexadecimal
'0xff

>>> hex(-35) # convert -35 to hexadecimal
'-0x23'

>>> type(hex(10)) # check the return type of hex()
<class 'str'>

You can also use the float.hex() method to convert a floating-point number to its hexadecimal representation. For example:

>>> float.hex(2.5) # convert 2.5 to hexadecimal
'0x1.4000000000000p+1'

>>> float.hex(0.0) # convert 0.0 to hexadecimal
'0x0.0p+0'
