# Functionality
For full explanations of functionallity use help() on the given function. Here are some quick and dirty descriptions:

## hexdump()
hexdump() allows you to dump a sequence in terms of hex with an optional ASCII printout on the right. For example:

```
>>> print hexdump([1,2,3,4,5]* 10)
0000 01 02 03 04 05 01 02 03 04 05 01 02 03 04 05 01 ................
0010 02 03 04 05 01 02 03 04 05 01 02 03 04 05 01 02 ................
0020 03 04 05 01 02 03 04 05 01 02 03 04 05 01 02 03 ................
0030 04 05

# or

>>> print hexdump([1,2,3,4,5]* 10, showAscii=False)
0000 01 02 03 04 05 01 02 03 04 05 01 02 03 04 05 01
0010 02 03 04 05 01 02 03 04 05 01 02 03 04 05 01 02
0020 03 04 05 01 02 03 04 05 01 02 03 04 05 01 02 03
0030 04 05

# or

>>> print hexdump([1,2,3,4,5]* 10, showAscii=False, showIndexLabel=False)
01 02 03 04 05 01 02 03 04 05 01 02 03 04 05 01
02 03 04 05 01 02 03 04 05 01 02 03 04 05 01 02
03 04 05 01 02 03 04 05 01 02 03 04 05 01 02 03
04 05

# and so on...
```

## sideBySideHexdump()
sideBySideHexdump() is used to print 2 hexdumps side-by-side and point out to the user lines that differ. For example:

```
>>> a = [10,20,30,40,50] * 10
>>> b = a[:]
>>> b[38] = 12
>>> print sideBySideHexdump(a, b)

0008 28 32 0A 14 1E 28 32 0A (2...(2. | 28 32 0A 14 1E 28 32 0A (2...(2. |
0010 14 1E 28 32 0A 14 1E 28 ..(2...( | 14 1E 28 32 0A 14 1E 28 ..(2...( |
0018 32 0A 14 1E 28 32 0A 14 2...(2.. | 32 0A 14 1E 28 32 0A 14 2...(2.. |
0020 1E 28 32 0A 14 1E 28 32 .(2...(2 | 1E 28 32 0A 14 1E 0C 32 .(2....2 | !
0028 0A 14 1E 28 32 0A 14 1E ...(2... | 0A 14 1E 28 32 0A 14 1E ...(2... |
0030 28 32 (2 | 28 32 (2 |
