0x10E

0x10E is a hexadecimal numeral. In base-16 notation, the prefix 0x signals that the following digits are hex digits. The value 0x10E equals 270 in decimal. Hex literals are widely used in programming languages to express constants, bit masks, memory addresses, and various low-level values.

In computing, 0x10E can be used wherever an integer constant is allowed. It is equivalent to 270 in decimal, and many languages accept variants like 0x010E or 0x10E for the same value. The binary and memory representation of this value depends on the system and the data type: for a 16-bit or larger integer, the bytes may be stored in little-endian or big-endian order. For example, in little-endian form the 16-bit value 0x010E would be stored as 0E 01, while in big-endian form it would be stored as 01 0E.

Unicode relevance arises because the numeric value 270 is the decimal equivalent of the code point U+010E. This code point corresponds to the Latin capital letter D with caron, Ď. The lowercase form is ď (U+010F). While 0x10E is a programming-style hex literal, U+010E is the standardized Unicode notation used for characters in text encoding.
