<para>
Returns a string containing a hexadecimal representation of the given
unsigned <parameter>num</parameter> argument.
</para>
<para>
The largest number that can be converted is
<constant>PHP_INT_MAX</constant><literal> * 2 + 1</literal> (or
<literal>-1</literal>): on 32-bit platforms, this will be
<literal>4294967295</literal> in decimal, which results in
<function>dechex</function> returning <literal>ffffffff</literal>.

<para>
The decimal value to convert.

<para>
As PHP's <type>int</type> type is signed, but
<function>dechex</function> deals with unsigned integers, negative
integers will be treated as though they were unsigned.
