0x000025D7

0x000025D7 is a hexadecimal literal commonly used in computing to represent a numeric value. The 0x prefix signals that the number is in base 16. When interpreted as a 32-bit unsigned integer, this value equals decimal 9687; the leading zeros are often used to indicate fixed width in certain data representations, such as memory addresses or binary fields.

In binary, 0x000025D7 corresponds to 0000 0000 0000 0000 0010 0101 1101 0111. The core value, 0x25D7, is the same as the lower 16 bits of the 32-bit representation. Depending on context, the literal may be treated as a simple numeric constant, a memory address offset, or a field within a larger data structure.

Common uses of hexadecimal literals like 0x000025D7 include representing constants in programming languages (such as C, C++, Java, and Python), specifying bitmasks or flags, and detailing memory addresses or offsets in low-level software, firmware, or binary data formats. In memory, the stored byte order depends on endianness; on little-endian systems, the bytes would appear as D7 25 00 00, while big-endian systems would store 00 00 25 D7.

Because the meaning of 0x000025D7 is context-dependent, its interpretation varies by application, language, and data format. It is primarily a numeric literal for hexadecimal notation rather than a standalone standard identifier. See also: hexadecimal notation, endianness, and byte order.
