The legal range of values of binary, octal, or hexadecimal integers is the range for Long integers (see the preceding table). The following table lists the maximum number of characters needed to represent integers in binary, octal, and hexadecimal notation. This is also the maximum number of characters that the Bin, Oct, or Hex function returns.
| Integer type |
