Text as hex bytes

Each byte of your text is shown as two hexadecimal digits. “Hello” becomes 48 65 6C 6C 6F. Developers use this to inspect how a string is encoded, find hidden characters such as non-breaking spaces (C2 A0), and prepare byte arrays.

Hex is a compact way to read binary: one hex digit stands for four bits, so a byte is exactly two digits.
