The Hexi2Deci() works, but Deci2Hexi() doesn't. E.g. trying Deci2Hexi("100") produces "808464433".

Another comment: The parameter name suggests that a numerical value is expected as input. However, the routine expects a character type numerical value.

If there’s no willingness to moderate for the sake of good debate, then I have no willingness to debate at all.
