- <p>You can always enter numbers in octal, decimal, or hexadecimal in
- <small>GDB</small> by the usual conventions: octal numbers begin with
- ‘<samp>0</samp>’, decimal numbers end with ‘<samp>.</samp>’, and hexadecimal numbers
- begin with ‘<samp>0x</samp>’. Numbers that neither begin with ‘<samp>0</samp>’ or
- ‘<samp>0x</samp>’, nor end with a ‘<samp>.</samp>’ are, by default, entered in base
- 10; likewise, the default display for numbers—when no particular
- format is specified—is base 10. You can change the default base for
- both input and output with the commands described below.
- </p>

- <dd><a name="index-set-input_002dradix"></a>
- </dd>
- <dt><code>set input-radix <var>base</var></code></dt>
- <dd><p>Set the default base for numeric input. Supported choices
- for <var>base</var> are decimal 8, 10, or 16. The base must itself be
- specified either unambiguously or using the current input radix; for
- example, any of

-
- <p>sets the input base to decimal. On the other hand, ‘<samp>set input-radix 10</samp>’
- leaves the input radix unchanged, no matter what it was, since
- ‘<samp>10</samp>’, being without any leading or trailing signs of its base, is
- interpreted in the current radix. Thus, if the current radix is 16,
- ‘<samp>10</samp>’ is interpreted in hex, i.e. as 16 decimal, which doesn’t
- change the radix.

- <dd><a name="index-set-radix"></a>
- <a name="index-show-radix"></a>
- <p>These commands set and show the default base for both input and output
- of numbers. <code>set radix</code> sets the radix of input and output to
- the same base; without an argument, it resets the radix back to its
- default value of 10.
