Prism 6.0 User's Guide

Changing the Radix

Choose Radix from the Options menu to change the radix used in the text representation of a value.

Choosing Radix pulls down a submenu with four selections: Decimal, Hex, Octal, and Binary. Choosing one of these changes the value to the specified radix. Prism continues to use this radix if the visualizer is updated.

By default, Prism displays values in decimal. You can change this default via the set $radix command; see " Changing the Default Radix". You can also override it for a specific print or display command; see " Printing and Displaying From the Command Window".
