Instacalc supports most JS syntax for hex and byte manipulation:

A few notes:

• While most JS syntax is allowed (if/else, ? :, "some string"), loops/functions are not.
• Data units (GB, MB) are base 2 (help text explains this). Use MB_SI for base 10.
• Functions can be called in several ways:
  • 123 as bin
  • 123 -> bin
  • bin(123)
• Binary operators (AND, XOR, NOT) are usually invoked with that keyword. The operators &, | and ^ work with binary/hex arguments: 0x123 ^ 0x456 is XOR, not an exponent (root issue: disambiguating the carat symbol ^).
