0x11EF

0x11EF is a hexadecimal literal that may appear in various computing contexts. The prefix 0x indicates that the following digits are written in base 16, using the digits 0–9 and letters A–F. In this form, 0x11EF corresponds to the four-digit hexadecimal value 1-1-E-F.

Numerically, 0x11EF equals 4591 in decimal. This value is derived from the positional weights of hexadecimal notation: 1×16^3 + 1×16^2 + 14×16^1 + 15×16^0, which simplifies to 4096 + 256 + 224 + 15 = 4591. In practical terms, 0x11EF can represent a 16-bit quantity in memory, an immediate constant in source code, or an intermediate value in computations, depending on the programming language and context.

Common uses and interpretations vary. In source code for languages such as C, C++, JavaScript, or Solidity, 0x11EF can initialize a numeric variable or participate in bitwise operations. In color theory, a related concept is a color value; if padded to 0x0011EF, it could be interpreted as an RGB triplet (0, 17, 239) in some encoding schemes, though standard web color notation typically uses six-digit hex codes without the 0x prefix.

In practice, the precise meaning of 0x11EF depends on context, including the system’s architecture, data width, and the surrounding code. It is primarily a representation of a numeric value in hexadecimal form. See also hexadecimal, numeric literals, and memory addresses.
