Number Base Converter
Why Convert Number Bases?
Binary, octal, decimal, and hexadecimal all describe the same quantity in different radixes. Developers move between them constantly — reading memory addresses, bitmasks, file permissions, and colour codes. Our converter keeps all four in sync as you type, using arbitrary-precision math so even very large numbers convert without rounding errors.
Features
- Four linked fields — binary, octal, decimal, hexadecimal update together.
- Arbitrary precision — backed by
BigInt, no 2^53 precision loss. - Negative number support — signed values convert correctly in every base.
- Inline validation — invalid digits for the current base are flagged immediately.
Common Use Cases
- Converting Unix file permission bits between octal and decimal.
- Reading hexadecimal memory addresses or colour values as decimal.
- Working with bitmask flags defined in binary.
