0x10F

0x10F is a hexadecimal integer literal. The prefix 0x denotes base-16, and the digits 1, 0, and F represent the value 1×16^2 + 0×16^1 + 15×16^0, which equals 271 in decimal.

In binary, 0x10F is 0001 0000 1111. In a common 16-bit representation it appears as 0000 0001 0000 1111, and is sometimes written as 0x0010F. This shows that the value occupies bits corresponding to the lower nibble (bits 0–3) and bit 8 set (the high nibble contributes the 1 in position 8).

0x10F exceeds the maximum value of an unsigned 8-bit integer (0xFF), so it requires at least 9 bits. It easily fits in 16-bit or larger integer types used in modern programming languages.

Common uses for a literal like 0x10F include defining constants in algorithms, specifying memory addresses or offsets in low-level code, and forming bitmasks. As a bitmask, 0x10F would enable bits 0–3 and bit 8, should those bits be interpreted as flags in a given context.

In practice, 0x10F appears in many programming languages that support hexadecimal literals, such as C, C++, Java, JavaScript, and Python. The exact range and behavior depend on the language and the chosen integer type, but the base-16 representation and decimal value are consistent across languages.
