0x122E

0x122E is a hexadecimal numeral commonly encountered in computing. The prefix 0x signals hex notation in many programming languages, including C, C++, Java, JavaScript, and Python, where 0x122E represents a constant value rather than a written number in decimal form.

As a numeric value, 0x122E corresponds to the decimal number 4654. In binary, it is 0001 0010 0010 1110. Because it is a 16-bit hex literal, 0x122E can be used in contexts where fixed-width integers are required, such as low-level programming, bitwise operations, and data encoding. Its particular bit pattern may be used to form masks, identifiers, or components of larger composite values depending on the surrounding code and data structures.

In practical use, 0x122E tends to appear as a literal in source code, a constant in configuration data, or as part of debugging output. It is an example of how hexadecimal notation compactly expresses binary data and enables easy visualization of bit-level features, such as which bits are set. While 0x122E itself does not imply a specific universal meaning, understanding hex literals like it is foundational for working with memory addresses, hardware registers, and many data formats.
