0111001

0111001 is a seven-bit binary string used in digital data representation. As a binary numeral, it encodes the decimal value 57. This is calculated as 0×64 + 1×32 + 1×16 + 1×8 + 0×4 + 0×2 + 1×1 = 57.

In the context of character encodings, 0111001 can correspond to the ASCII code for the digit '9' when interpreted as a 7-bit ASCII value. In standard 8-bit ASCII, the character '9' is represented as 00111001; dropping the leading zero for a 7-bit depiction yields 0111001. In practice, many systems store 7-bit ASCII data within bytes that are 8 bits wide, so the leading zero is often present in actual storage.

As a data pattern, 0111001 may appear in programming, digital logic, or puzzles as a literal bit string or as part of a larger bitfield. Its interpretation depends on context: it could be a value, a flag pattern, or a fragment of binary data.

Other considerations include that leading zeros do not change its value, so 0111001 is numerically identical to 111001 in shorter notation; if embedded in a multi-bit field, its significance depends on positional weighting.
