0x118B

0x118B is a hexadecimal numeric literal commonly used in programming and computer systems. Interpreted as a base-16 value, it equals decimal 4491. In binary it is 0001 0001 1000 1011. The 0x prefix is used in many languages (such as C, C++, JavaScript, and Python) to indicate a hex literal, and such literals can be used in arithmetic, bitwise operations, masks, or as addresses in memory when the surrounding context defines an address space.

As a 16-bit quantity, 0x118B can be stored in memory in different byte orders depending on the system’s endianness. On big-endian architectures, it would be stored as 11 8B; on little-endian architectures, it would be stored as 8B 11. This affects how the value is read from or written to binary data.

0x118B should not be confused with a complete identifier such as an Ethereum address. blockchain addresses are usually 40 hexadecimal digits long (20 bytes) and prefixed with 0x, so 0x118B by itself is only a small fragment. However, it could appear as part of a larger address or data payload in various protocols.

In summary, 0x118B is a compact example of a hex literal, illustrating how hex notation maps to decimal and binary and how such literals interact with memory layouts and data representations in computing. See also hexadecimal numerals and 0x prefix usage in programming languages.
