0x08FA

0x08FA is a hexadecimal numeric literal, a common notation in computing used to represent values in base-16. The prefix 0x signals that the digits that follow are hexadecimal. In decimal, 0x08FA equals 2298. In binary, it is 0000100011111010, and in octal it is 4372.

As a fixed-size value, 0x08FA can appear in various computing contexts such as memory addresses, bitfields, or data constants in source code. It may be encountered in debugging output, hexadecimal dumps, or as part of protocol and file format fields where specific bit patterns carry meaning. Like any hex constant, its interpretation depends on the surrounding context, including endianness, data width, and the system or language in which it is used.

In Unicode, 0x08FA corresponds to the code point U+08FA, which lies in the Arabic Extended-A block. The exact character assigned to U+08FA can vary with font and Unicode data updates; some code points in that range are assigned to Arabic letters or ligatures, while others may be unassigned. When used in text, the rendering of U+08FA will depend on the available fonts and rendering engine.

Historically and practically, 0x08FA is primarily a numeric value rather than a concept with inherent meaning. Its significance emerges from the application—whether as a data value, a character code, or part of a larger bit-pattern—within a particular software, hardware, or encoding scheme.
