0001000100100111
0001000100100111 is a 16-bit binary string. When read as four 4-bit groups, it appears as 0001 0001 0010 0111, which corresponds to the hexadecimal value 0x1127 and the decimal value 4391. In terms of its two 8-bit bytes, the sequence splits into 00010001 (0x11) and 00100111 (0x27).
Interpreting the same bits with endianness in mind yields two common perspectives. As a big-endian 16-bit word,
In ASCII terms, 0x11 is a non-printable control character (DC1), while 0x27 corresponds to the apostrophe character.
