| -1.0 | -0x1.0p0 |
| 2.0 | 0x1.0p1 |
| 3.0 | 0x1.8p1 |
| 0.5 | 0x1.0p-1 |
| 0.25 | 0x1.0p-2 |
| Double.MAX_VALUE | 00x1.fffffffffffffp1023 |
| Minimum Normal Value | 0x1.0p-1022 |
| Maximum Subnormal Value | 0x0.fffffffffffffp-1022 |
| Double.MIN_VALUE | 0x0.0000000000001p-1022 |

Example:
In the example below, the java.lang.Double.toHexString() method returns a hexadecimal string representing the given double argument.
import java.lang.*;
public class MyClass {
public static void main(String[] args) {
//creating double values
double x = 5.2;
double y = -5.2;
//printing the hexadecimal string for x
System.out.print("Hexadecimal string for x is: " );
System.out.println(Double.toHexString(x));
//printing the hexadecimal string for y
System.out.print("Hexadecimal string for y is: " );
System.out.println(Double.toHexString(y));
}
}
The output of the above code will be:
Hexadecimal string for x is: 0x1.4cccccccccccdp2 Hexadecimal string for y is: -0x1.4cccccccccccdp2
