0x1043

0x1043 is a hexadecimal numeral. In decimal, it equals 4163. The prefix 0x is commonly used in programming and computer science to denote values written in base-16. As a 16-bit quantity, 0x1043 can appear as a memory address offset, a bitmask, an instruction encoding, or other encoded data in software and hardware contexts.

In computing practice, hexadecimal literals like 0x1043 are often used for low-level tasks such as setting flag bits, representing color components in compact forms, or specifying hardware register values. The exact interpretation depends on the surrounding context, including the data type, endianness, and the specific API or protocol in which the value is used.

In Unicode, the value 0x1043 can be read as the code point U+1043. This code point lies in the Deseret block, which contains characters from the Deseret alphabet used historically for writing the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints’ English texts. The Deseret block covers code points around this range and includes both capital and lowercase letters. Therefore, 0x1043 corresponds to a Deseret script character, though the precise character name depends on the exact code point’s designation within the block.

Because 0x1043 is a generic hexadecimal value, its meaning is highly context-dependent. Without additional information, it functions primarily as a numeric constant or as a representation of a code point, rather than a standalone concept with a single, universal definition.
