I am not sure if this is the right section for this, but i didn't find it anywhere and I really need it. Can someone point me towards a place/tell me a program where I can get/compute the first (at least) 50 digits in the hexadecimal representation of the golden ratio? Thank you!

Ration or ratio? You typed it twice (once in the title and once in your post), so it seems like it's not a typo. But what is the Golden Ration? Can you post a link?

Oh sorry I meant ratio: ##(1+\sqrt{5})/2##. (It actually appears ratio in the title for me)

I have found the golden ratio up to 1,000 digits, however, decimal. I guess you will have to write your own program to convert it. I don't think converters on the internet allow so many digits.

Btw., why do you want to know this?

Edit: In order to forget the link again, here are the decimal digits:

It's just for a personal project. I tried with Python and Mathematica, but they don't give me enough digits (the built in methods, i mean)
 
You could convert it into binary and then into hex. But you probably have to write your own program.

Yes, it looks like one of the other very helpful Mentors has fixed the typo in your title now 😉
