C2X   built-in function

The C2X function returns the hexadecimal value of the associated character string.

Portability note: the hexadecimal result will vary for character encodings in different machine environments.

result = C2X( string )

string

a sequence of character encodings to convert. If the string is empty, the empty string is returned.

Examples: say C2X( '0123'x ) -- shows 0123 say C2X( '72s' ) -- shows F7F2A2 on systems that use EBCDIC character encoding say C2X( '72s' ) -- shows 373273 on systems that use ASCII character encoding
