Number Base Converter — Free Online Tool

A number base converter translates numbers between binary (base 2), octal (base 8), decimal (base 10), and hexadecimal (base 16). Developers use it to debug bitwise operations, interpret memory addresses, understand file permissions, and convert between number systems used in low-level programming.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can I convert very large numbers?

Yes. The tool uses BigInt arithmetic, so there is no practical limit on number size.

Does it handle negative numbers?

Yes. Negative numbers are converted with the sign preserved across all bases.

What about floating-point numbers?

The tool handles integers only. For float conversion, use a specialized IEEE 754 tool.

What number bases are supported?

The tool supports binary (base 2), octal (base 8), decimal (base 10), and hexadecimal (base 16) — the four most common bases in programming.

Can it convert floating point numbers?

No. The tool handles integers only. For IEEE 754 floating-point representation, use a dedicated float converter.

Is this tool free?

Yes, this tool is completely free with no usage limits, no ads, and no account required.

Does it work offline?

Yes. Once the page loads, all processing happens locally in your browser — no internet connection needed.
