How to convert decimal to hexadecimal in JavaScript

Question

How do you convert decimal values to their hexadecimal equivalent in JavaScript?

Answer 1

Without the loop:

function decimalToHex(d) {
  var hex = Number(d).toString(16);
  hex = "000000".substr(0, 6 - hex.length) + hex;
  return hex;
}

// Or "#000000".substr(0, 7 - hex.length) + hex;
// Or whatever
// *Thanks to MSDN

Also isn't it better not to use loop tests that have to be evaluated?

For example, instead of:

for (var i = 0; i < hex.length; i++){}

have

for (var i = 0, var j = hex.length; i < j; i++){}
