Step-by-Step Usage Guide

  1. Input Preparation
    Enter valid hexadecimal values (0-9, A-F) in both input fields. The calculator automatically:
    • Filters invalid characters
    • Converts lowercase letters to uppercase
    • Ignores leading zeros during calculation
  2. Operation Selection
    Choose from four core mathematical operations:
    • Addition (+) - Sum of two hex values
    • Subtraction (−) - Difference between values
    • Multiplication (×) - Product calculation
    • Division (÷) - Integer quotient (floor division)
    • Exponentiation (^) - First number raised to the power of the second
    • Bitwise AND (&) - Bitwise AND operation
    • Bitwise OR (|) - Bitwise OR operation
    • Bitwise NOT (~) - One's complement (uses only first input)
    • Bitwise XOR (^) - Bitwise exclusive OR operation
    • Left Shift (<<) - Shift bits to the left
    • Right Shift (>>) - Shift bits to the right (arithmetic)
  3. Execution & Results
    After clicking Calculate:
    • Instant hexadecimal result display
    • Decimal equivalent conversion
    • Automatic history tracking (last 5 operations)
  4. Error Handling
    Common scenarios and solutions:
    • Empty fields default to 0
    • Division by zero shows clear warning
    • Invalid characters are highlighted in red
