0001100010111110
0001100010111110 is a 16-bit binary string. When interpreted as an unsigned integer, it represents the decimal value 6334. In hexadecimal, the same value is 0x18BE, and the string can be partitioned into two bytes: 00011000 (0x18) and 10111110 (0xBE). If interpreted as a signed 16-bit quantity in two’s complement form, the most significant bit is 0, so the numeric value remains 6334.
Depending on endianness, the byte order differs in memory: big-endian stores 0x18 followed by 0xBE, while little-endian
Uses for such a pattern include its role as a data word in examples, digital logic testing,
