#182714 - Conversion vs Representation - and meaning of "BCD"
Responding to: ???'s previous message
Michael Karas said:
All too often we also see here a large amount of confusion between "representation" of a number and "storage format" of a number. Is that a factor here too?

Yes, I think so.

As I said in my post linked from my initial reply,

I said:
The value ... is just a number; it is neither hex nor decimal - just a number.
BUT, by applying the methods you've seen, you can determine the values of the digits needed to represent that number in the decimal notation.

I think there may also be some misunderstanding of the meaning of "BCD"...
