Xs 3 Conversion

package com.thealgorithms.bitmanipulation;

/**
 * This class provides methods to convert between XS-3 (Excess-3) and binary.
 *
 * Excess-3, also called XS-3, is a binary-coded decimal (BCD) code in which each decimal digit is represented by its corresponding 4-bit binary value plus 3.
 *
 * For more information, refer to the
 * <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Excess-3">Excess-3</a> Wikipedia page.
 *
 * <b>Example usage:</b>
 * <pre>
 * int binary = Xs3Conversion.xs3ToBinary(0x4567);
 * System.out.println("XS-3 0x4567 to binary: " + binary); // Output: 1234
 *
 * int xs3 = Xs3Conversion.binaryToXs3(1234);
 * System.out.println("Binary 1234 to XS-3: " + Integer.toHexString(xs3)); // Output: 0x4567
 * </pre>
