Convert HEX values to BIN - Inconsistency in the format of numbers

[AlessandroGrassi99]

Many values are written in hexadecimal format (like 0x0B_00_00_00), and a few others in binary format (like 0b1110_1010_0000_0000_0000_0000_0111_1111). It would be useful to standardize all values in binary, for readability reasons.

However, I think it is better to close #33 first because it would allow the removal of many values.

I'll take this issue

Is it correct to also change the values of the instructions and conditions in binary? (e.g. 0x0 to 0b0000)

from alu_instruction.rs file:

from condition.rs file:

I think in many cases hexadecimal is clearer than binary and vice versa. (ie: working with addresses in hex and working with bits/bitwise ops/masks in binary

[FedericoBruzzone]

I think like you.

But, to make all the code more readable, I would use hex in the parts as in these screenshots and bin in all other cases (also addresses).

Let's see what others say 👍

Nope. In the case of ALU instructions are expressed in hexadecimal in the documentation.

The main work would be to translate the masks and of the (main) instructions. So mainly where bit manipulation and control is required.

I think this issue could be closed (with #41)
