It's sometimes nice to have a convenient conversion utility.  Say you were 
studing the fecundity of kernel developers.  From /usr/include/linux/reboot.h:

#define LINUX_REBOOT_MAGIC1     0xfee1dead
#define LINUX_REBOOT_MAGIC2     672274793
#define LINUX_REBOOT_MAGIC2A    85072278
#define LINUX_REBOOT_MAGIC2B    369367448

$ i 0xfee1dead 672274793 85072278 369367448
4276215469 0xFEE1DEAD 037670357255
672274793 0x28121969 05004414551
85072278 0x5121996 0504414626
369367448 0x16041998 02601014630
