Lowercase can give different result

Please compare:

  • {{hex2dec|A9}} --> 169
  • {{hex2dec|a9}} --> 169
  • {{hex2dec|0xA9}} --> 169
  • {{hex2dec|0xa9}} --> 169

So when the "0x"-prefix is missing, the lowercase gives a different (and incorrect) result. So I put the disputed-tag on it. Other input might give the correct result (as I have noticed). Inputting a straight valid hex value like "a9" should be possible. -DePiep (talk) 19:01, 7 September 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Template Template:Hex2rgb(edit talk links history) uses this one, and also has this error. Tagged & talked there too. -DePiep (talk) 10:22, 8 September 2010 (UTC)[reply]
I fixed that one, I will see if I can fix this one. Plastikspork ―Œ(talk) 21:58, 10 September 2010 (UTC)[reply]

E7 wrong

  • {{hex2dec|E7}} --> 231 OK, As we expect (23110=E716)

Now please look at this:

  • {{hex2dec|00D7}} --> 215
  • {{hex2dec|00E7}} --> 231
  • {{hex2dec|00F7}} --> 247

These are neighbors in hex-language:

  • {{hex2dec|00E6}} --> 230
  • {{hex2dec|00E7}} --> 231
  • {{hex2dec|00E8}} --> 232

Alikes:

  • {{hex2dec|00E7}} --> 231
  • {{hex2dec|01E7}} --> 487
  • {{hex2dec|02E7}} --> 743
  • {{hex2dec|06E7}} --> 1767
  • {{hex2dec|07E7}} --> 2023
  • {{hex2dec|08E7}} --> 2279
  • {{hex2dec|09E7}} --> 2535
  • {{hex2dec|0AE7}} --> 2791
  • {{hex2dec|0FE7}} --> 4071

Another check:

  • {{hex2dec|00E7}} --> 231
  • {{hex2dec|0E7}} --> 231
  • {{hex2dec|E7}} --> 231
Anyone?

Ah, at I myself: the "E7" is read as "exponent" 7 etc. So 0 * 10^7 = zero.
