Python 3 f-strings: Answered by @GringoSuave
>>> i = 3735928559
>>> f'{i:x}'
'deadbeef'
Alternatives:
format
builtin function (good for single values only)
>>> format(3735928559, 'x')
'deadbeef'
And sometimes we still may need to use str.format
formatting in certain situations @Eumiro
(Though I would still recommend f-strings
in most situations)
>>> '{:x}'.format(3735928559)
'deadbeef'
(Legacy) f-strings
should solve all of your needs, but printf
-style formatting is what we used to do @msvalkon
>>> '%x' % 3735928559
'deadbeef'
Without string formatting @jsbueno
>>> i = 3735928559
>>> i.to_bytes(4, "big").hex()
'deadbeef'
Hacky Answers (avoid)
hex(i)[2:]
@GuillaumeLemaƮtre
>>> i = 3735928559
>>> hex(i)[2:]
'deadbeef'
This relies on string slicing instead of using a function / method made specifically for formatting as hex
. This is why it may give unexpected output for negative numbers:
>>> i = -3735928559
>>> hex(i)[2:]
'xdeadbeef'
>>> f'{i:x}'
'-deadbeef'
