Ask HN: Learning Hexidecimal Arithmetic

1 pointsumlaut9y ago1 comments

Has anyone taken the time/effort to learn arithmetic in hex (beyond simple addition/conversion)? I am dealing with a lot of legacy C/C++ pointer wrangling code, and I'm curious if it is worth the effort to learn to make debugging faster...

There are calculators that can operate directly in hex.
