0x00016C

0x00016C is a hexadecimal literal commonly used in computing to denote the numeric value 0x16C, which equals 364 in decimal. The leading zeros signal a fixed width, such as 32-bit or eight-digit hex dumps, and the 0x prefix marks hexadecimal notation.

In software, such a literal may serve as an integer constant, an offset within a data structure, or a memory-mapped register address. In assembly language, 0x00016C can be used as an immediate value or as a reference to an address; in C or C++, it evaluates to the integer 364 unless interpreted as a pointer.

Endian considerations affect how the value is stored in memory. As a 32-bit value 0x0000016C, big-endian storage would be 00 00 01 6C, while little-endian storage would be 6C 01 00 00. If treated as a 16-bit value, big-endian would store 01 6C and little-endian 6C 01.

Absent context, 0x00016C has no intrinsic meaning beyond representing the number 364. Its interpretation depends on the surrounding software, hardware, or data format. In a given system, it may denote a constant, an address, or part of a data encoding.
