Convert string to same hex value in c#

Question

I have a string varaible str. This variable has a value "26". Can I convert it into hex that results 0x26 not 0x1A.

Means str="26"

int iConvert=**SomeConvertionFunction(str)**

should result into iConvert=0x26

@SonerGönül why not? `Convert.ToUInt32("26", 16)` returns (int)0x26 — DrKoch, May 04 '15 at 12:19
@SonerGönül I know, that is why I wanted help on this forum. Anyways, solution to my problem lies in Sriram's suggestion. — user2861226, May 04 '15 at 12:27

int hex = int.Parse("26", NumberStyles.HexNumber);

hex value will be 38 which is the decimal representation of hex number 0x26.

If I understand your question basically you want to store the Hex value of the string in a int?

having the value 26 or 0x1A is the same.

To convert the int to a string use int.ToString('X');

And please not that 26 in base 10 in equal to 0x1A in base 16.

I believe the OP is saying that 26 is the hex value, so the result should be 38. – juharr May 04 '15 at 12:18
