How to convert a hex string to hex number

Question

I want to convert a hex string (ex: `0xAD4`) to hex number, then to add `0x200` to that number and again want to print that number in form of `0x` as a string. i tried for the first step: ``` str(int(str(item[1][:-2]),16)) ``` but the value that is getting printed is a decimal string not a hex formatted string (in 0x format) ( i want to print the final result in form of `0x`) - `[:-2]` to remove the last 00 from that number - `item[1]` is containing hex number in form of `0x`

Accepted Answer

Try this:

```
hex_str = "0xAD4"
hex_int = int(hex_str, 16)
new_int = hex_int + 0x200
print hex(new_int)
```

If you don't like the `0x` in the beginning, replace the last line with

```
print hex(new_int)[2:]
```
