Literals/Integer
You are encouraged to solve this task according to the task description, using any language you may know.
Some programming languages have ways of expressing integer literals in bases other than the normal base ten.
- Task
Show how integer literals can be expressed in as many bases as your language allows.
Note: this should not involve the calling of any functions/methods, but should be interpreted by the compiler or interpreter as an integer written to a given base.
Also show any other ways of expressing literals, e.g. for different types of integers.

Conventions vary between assemblers, but typically a $ represents hexadecimal and a % represents binary. The absence of either of those symbols means decimal. Single or double quotes represent an ASCII value. Keep in mind that without a # in front, any quantity is interpreted as a dereference operation at the memory location equal to the supplied number, rather than a constant value.
;These are all equivalent, and each load the constant value 65 into the accumulator.
LDA #$41
LDA #65
LDA #%01000001
LDA #'A'
Since all are equivalent, which one you use is entirely up to your preference. It's a good practice to use the representation that conveys the intent and meaning of your data the best.
Negative numbers can be represented by a minus sign. Minus signs only work for decimal numbers, not hexadecimal or binary. The assembler will interpret the negative number using the two's complement method, sign-extending it as necessary to fit the context it was provided in. This typically means that -1 maps to 0xFF, -2 to 0xFE, -3 to 0xFD, and so on. For absolute addresses, -1 gets converted to 0xFFFF, -2 to 0xFFFE, etc.

Supported integer literals may differ across assemblers. The following work with UASM which is MASM-compatible:
- A "0x" prefix or "h" suffix for hexadecimal.
- A % prefix for binary
- No prefix for base 10
MOV AX,4C00h
MOV BX,%1111000011110000
MOV CX,0xBEEF
MOV DL,35
AArch64 Assembly
Supported integer literals may differ across assemblers.
GNU assembler supports decimal, binary (prefix 0b), octal (prefix 0), hexadecimal (prefix 0x), and ASCII value of a given character (a single quote followed by an ASCII character, no closing quote).

Ada
In Ada integer literals may have the form <base>#<numeral>#. Here <base> can be from the range 2..16. For example:
with Ada.Integer_Text_IO; use Ada.Integer_Text_IO;
procedure Test_Literals is
begin
Put (16#2D7#);
Put (10#727#);
Put (8#1_327#);
Put (2#10_1101_0111#);
end Test_Literals;

ALGOL W
Algol W has only decimal integer literals. Hexadecimal values can be written (prefixed with #) but these are of type "bits" and the standard number function must be used to "convert" them to an integer.

Avail
Avail's built-in lexers recognize "traditional" binary, octal, and hexadecimal prefixes 0b
, 0o
, and 0x
respectively:
Print: "0b11001101 = " ++ “0b11001101”;
Print: "0o755 = " ++ “0o755”;
Print: "0xDEADBEEF = " ++ “0xDEADBEEF”;
Arbitrary integer bases from 2 to 36 are supported with the format digits r base. As additional digit characters are needed, they are taken from the latin alphabet in order.
Print: "ZZr36 = " ++ “ZZr36”;
While the task limits examples to those understood by the compiler and "not involve the calling of any functions/methods", the line is not so clear cut in Avail. For example, one could define new lexers to understand new integer formats which are then accepted by the compiler, allowing for an unlimited array of integer literal kinds.
AWK
Awk has decimal literals, using the digits from 0 to 9. Literals/Floating point#AWK describes the format of these literals.
As an extension to the language, some Awk implementations also have octal or hexadecimal literals. GNU awk (gawk) has both octal and hexadecimal literals, like C. The One True Awk (nawk) only has decimal literals.
BEGIN {
if ( (0x2d7 == 727) &&
(01327 == 727) ) {
print "true with GNU awk"
}
}
nawk parses 01327 as 1327, and parses 0x2d7 as 0 x2d7 (which is the string concatentation of "0" and variable x2d7).
BEGIN {
x2d7 = "Goodbye, world!"
print 0x2d7 # gawk prints "727", nawk prints "0Goodbye, world!"
print 01327 # gawk prints "727", nawk prints "1327"
}
Axe
In addition to decimal integer literals, Axe supports hexadecimal and binary integers using a leading exponent operator or pi, respectively. Note that the leading E below is the small-caps E.

Numeric literals use the digits 0-9 and A-F (only the uppercase letters). The minus sign '-' and radix point '.' are optional. When the program encounters a numeric literal, it uses the current value of ibase.
This example shows the literal -727 in all bases from 2 to 16. (It never prints "Impossible!")
ibase = 2
b[10] = -1011010111
ibase = 11 /* 3 */
b[10] = -222221
ibase = 11 /* 4 */
b[10] = -23113
ibase = 11 /* 5 */
b[10] = -10402
ibase = 11 /* 6 */
b[10] = -3211
ibase = 11 /* 7 */

ibase = 11 /* 8 */
b[10] = -1327
ibase = 11 /* 9 */
b[10] = -887
ibase = 11 /* 10 */

The digits 0-9 and A-F are valid with all input bases. For example, FF from base 2 is 45 (because 15 * 2 + 15 is 45), and FF from base 10 is 165 (because 15 * 10 + 15 is 45). Most importantly, ibase = A always switches to base ten.
Befunge
While Befunge doesn't directly support numbers aside from 0-9 (base 10), characters in strings are essentially treated as base-256 numbers.

BQN
BQN only supports base ten integer literals. There are some things to note, however:
A high minus must be used instead of a plain minus for negative numbers (also a feature of APL):
¯5
¯3000
Underscores are ignored in numeric literals in general.
1_000_000
Bracmat
Bracmat only supports specification of numbers in base ten.
C
Leading 0 means octal, 0x or 0X means hexadecimal. Otherwise, it is just decimal.
#include <stdio.h>
int main(void)
{
printf("%s\n",
( (727 == 0x2d7) &&
(727 == 01327) ) ? "true" : "false");
return 0;
}
GCC supports specifying integers in binary using the 0b prefix syntax, but it's not standard. Standard C has no way of specifying integers in binary.
To specify a literal of an unsigned integer, you add the suffix "u" or "U". To specify a literal of a "long" integer, you add the suffix "l" or "L". In C99, to specify a literal of a "long long" integer, you add the suffix "ll" or "LL". (The "l" and "ll" forms are discouraged as "l" looks like the digit "1"). The "u" suffixes can be combined with "l" or "ll" suffixes for unsigned long or unsigned long long integers.
C#
C# has decimal and hexadecimal integer literals, the latter of which are prefixed with 0x
:
int a = 42;
int b = 0x2a;
Literals of either form can be suffixed with U
and/or L
. U
will cause the literal to be interpreted as an unsigned type (necessary for numbers exceeding 231 or hex literals that have a first digit larger than 7
) and L
signifies the use of a long
type – using UL
or LU
as suffix will then use ulong
. C# has no syntactic notion of expressing integer literals of smaller types than Int32
; it is a compile-time error to have an assignment such as
byte x = 500;
Update
As of C#7, integer literals can be written in binary with the prefix 0b
. Furthermore, underscores can be used as separators:
int x = 0b1100_1001_1111_0000;
C++
The same comments apply as to the C example.
#include <iostream>
int main()
{
std::cout << ( (727 == 0x2d7) &&
(727 == 01327) ? "true" : "false")

COBOL
Standard COBOL accepts signed base 10 integer literals, but does allow for BOOLEAN and Hexadecimal alphanumeric literals, that can be treated as numeric values in code.
ACUCOBOL added extensions that allow base-2 (B#), base-8 (O#), base-16 (with both H# and X# prefix) integer literals.
With GnuCOBOL these extensions are allowed by configuration
prompt$ cobc -x -cb_conf=acucobol-literals:ok
display B#10 ", " O#01234567 ", " -0123456789 ", "
H#0123456789ABCDEF ", " X#0123456789ABCDEF ", " 1;2;3;4
- Output:
2, 342391, 0123456789, 81985529216486895, 81985529216486895, 1234
Some characters are removed by the COBOL text manipulation facility, and are allowed in numeric literals. These symbols are stripped out, along with comment lines, before seen by the compiler proper.
if 1234 = 1,2,3,4 then display "Decimal point is not comma" end-if
if 1234 = 1;2;3;4 then display "literals are equal, semi-colons ignored" end-if
Comma is a special case, as COBOL can be compiled with DECIMAL POINT IS COMMA
in the CONFIGURATION SECTION
. The 1,2,3,4 comparison test above would cause a compile time syntax error when DECIMAL POINT IS COMMA
is in effect.

D besides hexadecimal, has also binary base. Additionally you can use _ to separate digits in integer (and FP) literals. Octal number literals are library-based to avoid bugs caused by the leading zero.

Integer literals can be specified in decimal, hexadecimal, octal and binary. Only decimal literals can have an optional sign. Underscores may also be used as separators, but cannot begin or end the literal. Literals are case insensitive.
123 -- decimal
-1_2_3 -- decimal
0x7b -- hexadecimal
0c173 -- octal
0b111_1011 -- binary
Literals are by default interpreted as type INTEGER, where INTEGER is a synonym for either INTEGER_32 or INTEGER_64 (depending on the compiler option) but can be explicitly converted to another type.

Base prefixes
Binary numbers begin with 0b, octal numbers with 0o, and hexadecimal numbers with 0x. The hexadecimal digits A-F may be in any case.
0b101 // = 5
0o12 // = 10
0xF // = 16
Type suffixes
Most type suffixes can be preceded with a 'u', which indicates the type is unisgned.
10y // 8-bit
'g'B // Character literals can be turned into unsigned 8-bit literals
10s // 16-bit
10l // 32-bit (suffix is optional)
10L // 64-bit
10I // Bigint (cannot be preceded by a 'u')
10un // Unsigned native int (used to represent pointers)

Forth
The standard method for entering numbers of a particular base is to set the user variable BASE to the desired radix from 2 to 36. There are also convenience words for setting the base to DECIMAL and HEX.
HEX
FEEDFACE
2 BASE !
1011001
DECIMAL
1234
: mask var @ [ base @ hex ] 3fff and [ base ! ] var ! ;
The Forth numeric parser will look for symbols embedded within the stream of digits to determine whether to interpret it as a single cell, double cell, or floating point literal ('e').
1234 ( n )
123.4 ( l h )
123e4 ( F: n )
Base prefixes
In addition, many Forths have extensions for using a prefix to temporarily override BASE when entering an integer literal. These are the prefixes supported by GNU Forth.
$feedface \ hexadecimal
&1234 \ decimal
%1001101 \ binary
'a \ base 256 (ASCII literal)
Some Forths also support "0xABCD" hex literals for compatibility with C-like languages.

Go
For integer literals, octal is represented by a leading 0
or the prefix 0o
. 0x
or 0X
means hexadecimal. 0b
or 0B
is binary. Otherwise, it is just decimal.
Character literals though, also specify integer values. Go source is specified to be UTF-8 encoded. The value of a character literal is the Unicode value of the UTF-8 encoded character.
There is no size or type specification with an integer literal, they are of arbitrary precision and do not overflow (compilers are required to represent integer constants with at least 256 bits and give an error if unable to represent an integer constant precisely). Constant expressions are evaluated at compile time at an arbitrary precision. It is only when a constant is assigned to a variable that it is given a type and an error produced if the constant value cannot be represented as a value of the respective type.

J
J's numeric mini-language allows spaces, underlines, dots and lower case alphabetic characters in its numeric literals.
Arbitrary base numbers begin with a base ten literal (which represents the base of this number), and then the letter 'b' and then an arbitrary sequence of digits and letters which represents the number in that base. Letters a..z represent digits in the range 10..35. Each numeric item in a numeric constant must have its base specified independently.

1
123 291 83 443 11 6 3 10203 99 0 1 28
This may be used to enter hexadecimal or octal or binary numbers. However, note also that J's primitives support a variety of binary operations on numbers represented as sequences of 0s and 1s, like this:
0 1 0 0 0 1 0 0 0 1 1 1 1
J also supports extended precision integers, if one member of a list ends with an 'x' when they are parsed. Extended precision literals can not be combined, in the same constant, with arbitrary base literals. (The notation supports no way of indicating that extra precision in an arbitrary base literal should be preserved and the extra complexity to let this attribute bleed from any member of a list to any other member was deemed not worth implementing.)

J also allows integers to be entered using other notations, such as scientific or rational.
1e2 100r5
100 20
Internally, J freely converts fixed precision integers to floating point numbers when they overflow, and numbers (including integers) of any type may be combined using any operation where they would individually be valid arguments.
Internally, J represents numeric constants in their simplest type, regardless of how they were specified. In other words 9r1, although it is "specified as a rational" is represented as an extended precision integer. Similarly, 2.0, although it is "specified as a floating point value" is represented as an integer, and 1.0 is represented as a boolean.
That said, note that "type" is a property of the array, and not a property of the value. And, code that modifies the structure of an array leaves its type alone. So, if you need an array of a type different than that specified by J's "simplest type for constants" rule, you can extract the constant you need from an array which contains it and has the type you need. For example {.1 2
would give you an integer 1 instead of a boolean 1.
Java
A leading 0 means octal, 0x or 0X means hexadecimal. Otherwise, it is just decimal.
public class IntegerLiterals {
public static void main(String[] args) {
System.out.println( 727 == 0x2d7 &&
727 == 01327 );
}
}
You may also specify a long literal by adding an l or L (uppercase is preferred as the lowercase looks like a "1" in some fonts) to the end (ex: long a = 574298540721727L). This is required for numbers that are too large to be expressed as an int.
Java 7 has added binary literals to the language. A leading 0b means binary. You may also use underscores as separators in all bases.
public class BinaryLiteral {
public static void main(String[] args) {
System.out.println( 727 == 0b10_1101_0111 );
}
}

jq
jq only supports JSON data types, and thus the only supported integer literals are decimals, which may, however, be expressed using digits in the conventional way, or using the "e" notation, e.g. 10 == 1e1. Other ways to express 10 include 1e+1, 10e0, 10E-0, etc.
Julia
Julia has binary, octal and hexadecimal literals. We check that they give the same value.

true
Kotlin
Kotlin supports 3 types of integer literal: decimal, hexadecimal and binary. Hexadecimal literals are prefixed with 0x
or 0X
, and binary literals with 0b
or 0B
. Hexadecimal digits can be uppercase or lowercase, or a combination of the two.
A signed integer literal can be assigned to a variable of any signed integer type. If no type is specified, Int (4 bytes) is assumed. If the value cannot fit into an Int, Long (8 bytes) is assumed.
An unsigned integer literal is made by appending u
or U
to a signed integer literal. Unsigned literals can be assigned to any unsigned integer type, with UInt (4 bytes) being assumed if none is specified, or ULong (8 bytes) if the value cannot fit into a UInt.
Signed and unsigned integer literals can be forced to be interpreted as Long or ULong respectively by appending the suffix L
to the literal (lower case 'l' is not allowed as it is easily confused with the digit '1').
Underscores can be used between digits of a literal for clarity.
fun main() {
// signed integer literals
val d = 255 // decimal
val h = 0xff // hexadecimal (can use 0X instead of 0x)
val b = 0b11111111 // binary (can use 0B instead of 0b)

val ld = 255L // decimal

An integer is either a decimal, binary, octal, hexadecimal, or character-code literal. A decimal literal is any sequence of decimal digits. A binary literal is 0b followed by any sequence of binary digits. An octal literal is 0o followed by any sequence of octal digits. A hexadecimal literal is 0x followed by any sequence of hexadecimal digits. A character-code literal is 0' followed by any single character.
Metafont
num1 := oct"100";
num2 := hex"100";
Metafont numbers can't be greater than 4096, so that the maximum octal and hexadecimal legal values are 7777 and FFF respectively. To be honest, "100" is a string, and oct is an "internal" "macro"; but this is the way Metafont specifies numbers in base 8 and 16.
MIPS Assembly
This ultimately depends on the assembler you're using.
Hexadecimal numbers are prefixed with 0x, binary with 0b. A number with no prefix is decimal.
If fewer than the maximum number of digits is specified, the number is padded with zeroes to fill the declared space.
.byte
is 8-bit, .halfword
is 16-bit, and .word
is 32-bit.
The endianness of your CPU determines what order the bytes are actually stored in. Bytes are always stored in the order they are declared, but words and halfwords will be endian-swapped if you are assembling for a little-endian MIPS CPU such as the PlayStation 1. On a big-endian MIPS CPU (e.g. Nintendo 64), words and halfwords are assembled as-is.
You can have multiple declarations on the same line separated by commas, and if you do, you only need to specify the data type once for that entire line. (Everything in that line is understood to be the same data type.) Or, you can put each on its own line with the data type declaration in front of each. Either way, the memory layout of the declared literals is the same. How you present the data in your source code is up to you, so it's best to display it in a way that maximizes readability and communicates your intent.
.word 0xDEADBEEF
.byte 0b00000000,0b11111111,0,255
.halfword 0xCAFE,0xBABE
A minus sign can be used to indicate a negative number. Negative number literals are sign-extended to fit whatever operand size matches the context.
addi $t0,-1 ;assembled the same as "addi $t0,0xFFFF"
li $t0,-2 ;assembled the same as "li $t0,0xFFFFFFFE"

NetRexx
Along with decimal notation NetRexx accepts numeric literals in hexadecimal and binary formats.
The NetRexx documentation describes hexadecimal and binary literal symbol notation in more detail; a summary follows:
A hexadecimal numeric symbol describes a whole number, and is of the form nXstring where, n is a simple number which describes the effective length of the hexadecimal string and string is a string of one or more hexadecimal characters.
A binary numeric symbol describes a whole number using the same rules, except that the identifying character is B or b, and the digits of string must be either 0 or 1, each representing a single bit.

To demonstrate the different numerical bases, we unify the identical values:
try

0b1011010111 = 01327 = 727 = 0x2d7
{Show success}
catch _ then
{Show unexpectedError}
end
Negative integers start with "~":
X = ~42
PARI/GP
GP allows input in binary 0b11
and hexadecimal 0xff
. PARI of course supports precisely those bases supported by C.
Pascal
See Delphi
FreePascal also supports:
hexadecimal (with leading dollar sign: $) octal (with leading ampersand: &) and binary (with leading percent sign: %) literals:
const
DEC_VALUE = 15;
HEX_VALUE = $F;
OCTAL_VALUE = &017;
BINARY_VALUE = %1111;
Perl
print "true\n" if ( 727 == 0x2d7 &&
727 == 01327 &&
727 == 0b1011010111 &&
12345 == 12_345 # underscores are ignored; useful for keeping track of places
);
Phix
Phix supports more bases and number formats than average. Standard decimals and hexadecimals are eg 255=#FF.
For hexadecimal numbers you can use upper or lower case for digits above 9 (A..F or a..f).
Phix also supports 0b01, 0o07, (0t07,) 0d09, and 0x0F for binary, octal, (octal,) decimal, and hexadecimal values.
(The only difference between 0o07 and 0t07 is personal preference.) There is no difference whatsoever between 1 and 1.0.
Given the need for 2, 8, 10, and 16, rather than four routines I wrote one that could handle all of them, and trivially
extended it to cope up to base 36. Thus Phix (also) allows any base between 2 and 36, using the notation o(<base>)digits,
eg o(7)16 is the base 7 representation of the decimal 13 (ie 1*7^1 + 6*7^0).
Phix does not however support "leading 0 is octal", or "trailing h is hex" or any other trailing qualifiers.
There is also a specialist "bytewise octal" that I personally wanted for x86 opcodes/listing files, eg 0ob377377377377==#FFFFFFFF.
An integer literal representing a character code can also be expressed by surrounding the character with single quotes, for example the statement for i='A' to 'Z'
is/behaves exactly the same as for i=65 to 90
.
Elements (8-bit characters) of an ansi string can likewise be treated as integers. Strings representing a number can/must be converted using eg scanf().
In the 32-bit version, integers outside -1,073,741,824 to +1,073,741,823 must be stored as atoms, which [ie a 64-bit float] can (accurately) store integers up to 9,007,199,254,740,992:
between 9,007,199,254,740,992 and 18,014,398,509,481,984 you can only store even numbers, and between 18,014,398,509,481,984 and 36,028,797,018,963,968, you can only store numbers divisible by 4, and so on. (ie as you need more and more bits on the front, eventually bits must start falling off the end)
In the 64-bit version the limits of integers are -4,611,686,018,427,387,904 to +4,611,686,018,427,387,903.
The included mpfr/gmp library allows working with extremely large integers with arbitrary precision, very efficiently.
?{65,#41,'A',scanf("55","%d"),0o10,0(7)11}

{65,65,65,{{55}},8,8}

PicoLisp
In the strict sense of this task, PicoLisp reads only integers at bases which are a power of ten (scaled fixpoint numbers). This is controlled via the global variable '*Scl':
: (setq *Scl 4)
-> 4
: 123.456789
-> 1234568
However, the reader is normally augmented by read macros, which can read any base or any desired format. Read macros are not executed at runtime, but intially when the sources are read.
: '(a `(hex "7F") b `(oct "377") c)
-> (a 127 b 255 c)
In addition to standard formats like 'hex' (hexadecimal) and 'oct' (octal), there are also more esoteric formats like 'fmt64' (base 64) and 'hax' (hexadecimal numbers coded with alphabetic characters).
PL/I
12345
'b4'xn /* a hexadecimal literal integer. */
'ffff_ffff'xn /* a longer hexadecimal hexadecimal integer. */
1101b /* a binary integer, of value decimal 13. */
Plain English
Plain English has two types of numerical literals. The first is the ordinary "number literal", which is expressed in base ten.
12345
-12345 \ with a negative sign
+12345 \ with a positive sign
The second is the "nibble literal", which is a dollar sign followed by a hexadecimal literal.
$12345DEADBEEF
Numerical literals can also be embedded into "ratio" or "mixed literals".
123/456 \ ratio literal
1-2/3 \ mixed literal
PostScript
Integer literals in PostScript can be either standard decimal literals or in the form base#
number. base can be any decimal integer between 2 and 36, number can then use digits from 0
to base − 1. Digits above 9
are replaced by A
through Z
and case does not matter.
123 % 123
8#1777 % 1023
16#FFFE % 65534
2#11011 % 27
5#44 % 24
PowerShell
PowerShell only supports base 10 and 16 directly:
727 # base 10
0x2d7 # base 16
Furthermore there are special suffices which treat the integer as a multiple of a specific power of two, intended to simplify file size operations:
3KB # 3072
3MB # 3145728
3GB # 3221225472
3TB # 3298534883328
A number can be suffixed with d
to make it a decimal
. This doesn't work in conjunction with above suffixes, though:
PS> 4d.GetType().ToString() System.Decimal
PureBasic
PureBasic allows integer literals to be specified in base 10, base 2 by using the prefix '%', or base 16 by using the prefix '$'.
x = 15 ;15 in base 10
x = %1111 ;15 in base 2
x = $f ;15 in base 16
An integer literal representing a character code can also be expressed by surrounding the character with single quotes. More than one character can be included in the single quotes (i.e. 'abc'). Depending on whether code is compiled in Ascii or Unicode mode this will result in the integer value being specified in base 256 or base 65536 respectively.
x = 'a' ;129
Python
Python 3.0 brought in the binary literal and uses 0o or 0O exclusively for octal.
>>> # Bin(leading 0b or 0B), Oct(leading 0o or 0O), Dec, Hex(leading 0x or 0X), in order:
>>> 0b1011010111 == 0o1327 == 727 == 0x2d7
True
>>>
Python 2.6 has the binary and new octal formats of 3.0, as well as keeping the earlier leading 0 octal format of previous 2.X versions for compatability.
>>> # Bin(leading 0b or 0B), Oct(leading 0o or 0O, or just 0), Dec, Hex(leading 0x or 0X), in order:
>>> 0b1011010111 == 0o1327 == 01327 == 727 == 0x2d7
True
>>>
>>> # Oct(leading 0), Dec, Hex(leading 0x or 0X), in order:
>>> 01327 == 727 == 0x2d7
True
>>>
In Python 2.x you may also specify a long literal by adding an l or L (the latter form is preferred as the former looks like a "1") to the end (ex: 574298540721727L), but this is optional, as integer literals that are too large for an int will be interpreted as a long.
Quackery
The default base for the Quackery compiler is decimal. This can be overridden for a single hexadecimal number with the building word (compiler directive) hex
like this; hex DEFACEABADFACADE
.
The default base can be overridden for a section of code using the compiler directive now!
like this;
[ 2 base put ] now!
( The Quackery compiler now expects numeric literals to be in binary. )
[ base release ] now!
( The Quackery compiler now expects numeric literals to be in whichever
base they were previously. The default base is decimal. )
If a new compiler directive akin to hex
is required, say to allow occasional octal literals in the form octal 7777
, the compiler can be extended like this;
[ 8 base put
nextword dup
$ '' = if
[ $ '"octal" needs a number after it.'
message put bail ]
dup $->n iff
[ nip swap dip join ]
else
[ drop
char " swap join
$ '" is not octal.'
join message put bail ]
base release ] builds octal ( [ $ --> [ $ )
R
0x or 0X followed by digits or the letters a-f denotes a hexadecimal number. The suffix L means that the number should be stored as an integer rather than numeric (floating point).
0x2d7==727 # TRUE
identical(0x2d7, 727) # TRUE
is.numeric(727) # TRUE

Scala
Scala has signed integers of 8, 16, 32 and 64 bits. They can be represented in decimal, octal by prefixing
0
, or hexadecimal by prefixing 0x
or 0X
. Without any other type hint,
it defaults to 32 bits integers, or an Int
. An l
or L
suffix will
indicate a 64 bits integer, or a Long
. The other two types, Byte
and Short
,
can be represented using type ascription, as shown below.

Seed7
In Seed7 integer literals may have the form <base>#<numeral>. Here <base> can be from the range 2..36. For example:
$ include "seed7_05.s7i";
const proc: main is func
begin
writeln(727);
writeln(32#MN);
writeln(16#2D7);
writeln(10#727);
writeln(8#1327);
writeln(2#1011010111);
end func;
Sample output:
727 727 727 727 727 727

Stata
Stata does not have an integer type, except for dataset storage, in order to reduce data size in memory or on disk. Computations are done with floating-point doubles, which can hold exact integers in the range -9007199254740992 to 9007199254740992 (that is, -2^53 to 2^53). Only decimal literals are supported.

TI-89 BASIC
Binary, decimal, and hexadecimal are supported. The system base mode sets the default output base, but does not affect input; unmarked digits are always decimal.
0b10000001 = 129 = 0h81
UNIX Shell
The expr command accepts only decimal literals.
$ expr 700 - 1
699
$ expr 0700 - 01
699
Some shells have arithmetic expansion. These shells may accept literals in other bases. This syntax only works in places that do arithmetic expansion, such as in $(( )), or in Bash's let command.
Quoting the manual page of pdksh:
Integer constants may be specified with arbitrary bases using the notation base#number, where base is a decimal integer specifying the base, and number is a number in the specified base. Additionally, integers may be prefixed with `0X' or `0x' (specifying base 16) or `0' (base 8) in all forms of arithmetic expressions, except as numeric arguments to the test command.
pdksh allows bases from 2 to 36. The letters a-z or A-Z represent numbers 10 to 35.
Bash allows the same syntax as pdksh. In addition, Bash can handle bases as high as 64: the symbols used are digits, lowercase letters, uppercase letters, @ and _ in that order; if the BASE is less than or equal to 36, lowercase and uppercase letters can be used interchangeably to represent number from 10 and 35. (From the info manual of the Bash).
dec=727
oct=$(( 01327 ))
bin=$(( 2#1011010111 ))
hex=$(( 0x2d7 ))
# or e.g.
let bin=2#1011010111
let "baseXX = 20#1g7"
dec=727
oct=$(( 01327 ))
bin=$(( 2#1011010111 ))
hex=$(( 0x2d7 ))
# or e.g.
(( bin = 2#1011010111 ))
(( baseXX = 20#1g7 ))
Ursa
Ursa supports signed, base-10 integers.
decl int i
set i 123
set i -456
Ursala
Natural numbers (i.e., unsigned integers) of any size are supported. Only decimal integer literals are recognized by the compiler, as in a declaration such as the following.
n = 724
Signed integers are also recognized and are considered a separate type from natural numbers, but non-negative integers and natural numbers have compatible binary representations.
z = -35
Signed rational numbers of unlimited precision are yet another primitive type and can be expressed in conventional decimal form.
m = -2/3
The forward slash in a rational literal is part of the syntax and not a division operator. Finally, a signed or unsigned integer with a trailing underscore, like this
t = 4534934521_
is used for numbers stored in binary converted decimal format, also with unlimited precision, which may perform better in applications involving very large decimal numbers.
Uxntal
Uxntal only allows hexadecimal literals, and they can be either one or two bytes. In order to push them to the stack, rather than writing them directly to the assembled binary, they must be prefixed with #
.
#2a ( byte literal )
#c0de ( short literal )
And yes, they do have to be in lowercase hex.

Visual Basic
Integer literals can be expressed in octal, decimal and hexadecimal form.
Sub Main()

Debug.Assert i1 = i2
Debug.Assert i2 = i3

Wren
Wren supports just two kinds of integer literal: decimal and hexadecimal.
Despite being written in C, Wren doesn't support octal literals using the 'leading zero' notation. These are just treated as ordinary decimal literals with the leading zeros ignored.
All numbers, whether integers or not, are instances of the built-in Num class which is always 8 bytes in size. A consequence of this is that integers whose absolute magnitude exceeds 2^53-1 cannot be accurately represented in Wren.
As the only difference between integers and other numbers is that the former do not have a decimal part, it is also possible to represent integers using scientific notation.
var a = 255
var b = 0xff
var c = 0255 // not an octal literal
var d = 2.55e2
System.print([a, b, c, d])
- Output:
[255, 255, 255, 255]
