Hi... I'm very new to c, no I'm new to programming languages... except a bit
of visual basic...

My question is about declaring variables... I know how to declare decimal or
float or char... but when i try to declare an hexadecimal variable I get in
error when running the file...

I read somewhere that it is the same as a decimal variable: int
variablename; but when i associate the hexadecimal number with
variablename... there is an error

example:

int number;
number = 1e; or 1E;

both doesn't work... can someone help me!

thanx

O.L.

/ int number;
/ number = 1e; or 1E;

In C, use 0x1e or 0x1E.

Do not start numbers with 0, that is octal, 012 == 10.
