Find and Print Address of Variable using hex()

Here we will call the hex(address) function, to convert the memory address to hexadecimal representation.

Syntax: hex(id(object))

where,

  • hex() is the memory hexadecimal representation to the address
  • id is used to get the memory of the object
  • object is the data

Example: Python program to get the memory address in hexadecimal representation.

Python3




# get id of list in hexadecimal representation
a = [1, 2, 3, 4, 5]
print(hex(id(a)))
  
# get id of a variable in hexadecimal representation
a = 12
print(hex(id(a)))
  
# get id of tuple in hexadecimal representation
a = (1, 2, 3, 4, 5)
print(hex(id(a)))
  
# get id of a dictionary in hexadecimal representation
a = {'a': 1,'b' : 2}
print(hex(id(a)))


Output:

0x7fba9b0ae8c0
0x5572da858b60
0x7fba9f3c4a10
0x7fba9b05b8c0
