What is a hexadecimal number?

Hexadecimal (base-16) uses digits 0-9 and letters A-F. Each byte produces 2 hex characters. Commonly used in programming for representing binary data.

What does byte length mean?

Each byte equals 2 hexadecimal characters. For example, 4 bytes = 8 hex characters (like '1A3F5C7E'). You can generate from 1 to 1024 bytes.

Should I add the 0x prefix?

Add 0x prefix if you're using the hex values in code (like 0x1A3F). Omit it if you just need the raw hex string.
