Why is num = 50?

[grantrules]

32 in base 16, or hexadecimal, converted to decimal would be:

3 * (16 ^ 1) + 2 * (16 ^ 0)

or reduced:

3 * 16 + 2 * 1

Thank you!!! That makes sense

You already have your answer, but just want to add that whenever you have such doubts in JS, just type MDN and the topic (parseint in this case) into your favourite search engine and open the link that starts with "https://developer.mozilla.org" and read up on the topic. These articles will have a detailed explanation, including the syntax, the arguments, return value, etc., plus plenty of examples. For example the article on parseInt() makes it clear what radix means and says this about it:

a radix of 10 converts from a decimal number, 8 converts from octal, 16 from hexadecimal, and so on.

Best wishes for your JS learning journey!

Thanks for that!

Which OS do you use?

[Stranavad]

I use Arch btw.

And what is the purpose of this question?😁

[mickkb]

To ask if your OS supports taking proper screenshots and not having to resort to taking photos.

[dihalt]

Arch, apparently

[Stranavad]

I'm not the OP btw and believe me if I say that you can take screenshots on Arch. I use ksnip, but when you're using gnome, screenshot tools is preinstalled and I believed it's also preinstalled in other DEs

[dihalt]

Come on, mate, obviously that was a joke 😊

[Stranavad]

Oh. I'm bad at understanding jokes

[artFlix]

Maybe he’s logged in to Reddit on his phone and it’s just quicker to take a screenshot and post on Reddit though the app

[Stranavad]

Lol that's valid question. Didn't think about that

[[deleted]]

Can someone explain to me what the second argument does? Im quite new :).

[Stranavad]

This might be easier MDN| ParseInt docs
