Example #1 hexdec() example
<?php
var_dump(hexdec("See"));
var_dump(hexdec("ee"));
// both print "int(238)"
var_dump(hexdec("that")); // print "int(10)"
var_dump(hexdec("a0")); // print "int(160)"
?>
Note:
The function can convert numbers that are too large to fit into the platforms int type, larger values are returned as float in that case.
