0b1100110001010

0b1100110001010 is a binary numeral written with the 0b prefix used in several programming languages to denote a base-2 integer. The value consists of 13 bits: 1100110001010. In unsigned binary interpretation, this pattern corresponds to the decimal number 6538 and the hexadecimal value 0x198A. If padded to 16 bits for common representations, it becomes 0001100110001010, which is still 0x198A in hex.

As a signed value in a 13-bit two's-complement scheme, the most-significant bit is 1, which would represent a negative number; specifically it would equal -1654. However, most mainstream languages operate with 8–, 16–, 32–, or 64–bit integers, so the interpretation depends on the chosen width.

The prefix 0b is widely used to denote binary literals in languages such as Python, JavaScript (ECMAScript 2020 and later), Java, and C++ (since C++14). Such literals are usually treated as integers and can participate in arithmetic, bitwise operations, and masking in program logic.

Beyond programming, the bit pattern itself is simply a sequence of 0s and 1s; without additional context it does not have a universal meaning and serves as an example of a 13-bit binary value.
