0b0010110011000111

0b0010110011000111 is a binary literal that uses the 0b prefix to denote base-2 notation. The bit string represented is 0010110011000111, consisting of 16 bits.

In common numeric representations, this value is 0x2CC7 in hexadecimal and 11463 in decimal. As an unsigned 16-bit value, it equals 11463. Since the most significant bit is 0, it also represents a positive number in signed 16-bit two’s complement interpretation, namely 11463.

The 16-bit pattern can be viewed as two bytes: the high byte 0x2C (binary 0010 1100) and the low byte 0xC7 (binary 1100 0111). The set bits occur at positions 13, 11, 10, 7, 6, 2, 1, and 0 when counting from the least significant bit as bit 0.

Context and usage notes: the 0b prefix is common in several programming languages such as Python, Rust, and modern JavaScript, where it denotes a base-2 literal. The specific bit pattern 0010110011000111 has no inherent meaning on its own; its significance depends on the encoding, protocol, or data structure in which it is used. It can represent a small integer, a bit field, or part of a larger data word in hardware specifications, software constants, or test data.
