0x0FB3

0x0FB3 is a hexadecimal numeric literal used in computing to denote a 16-bit value. The 0x prefix indicates base-16 notation, a convention widely supported in programming languages such as C, C++, Java, and Python. The value of 0x0FB3 is 4019 in decimal, and its 16-bit binary representation is 0000 1111 1011 0011.

In practice, 0x0FB3 may appear as a constant in source code, a memory offset, or a bitmask. It can also show up in data dumps, logs, or protocol fields that are expressed in hexadecimal.

When the value is serialized to bytes, endianness determines the order of the two bytes. In little-endian form, 0x0FB3 is stored as 0xB3 followed by 0x0F; in big-endian form, it is stored as 0x0F followed by 0xB3. Such details matter in low-level programming, network communications, and file I/O.
