044

044 is a three-digit string that can refer to multiple things depending on context. As a number, it is the decimal value 44 when leading zeros are ignored.

In telecommunications, 044 is the city area code for Kyiv, Ukraine, within the national numbering plan. When dialing internationally, Kyiv numbers are typically written with the country code +380 followed by 44, as in +380 44 NNN NNNN.

In computing, 044 denotes an octal literal in languages that use a leading zero to indicate octal notation. For example, 044 in such a context represents octal 44, which equals decimal 36. The sequence can also appear in fixed-width numeric fields or identifiers that are padded with leading zeros.

Beyond numbers and codes, 044 can appear as a model or part number in various products and as a code in different cataloging or data systems. Because it is simply a string of digits, its meaning is highly context-dependent and can vary across industries and applications.
