0x122F

0x122F is a hexadecimal literal that appears in software development and digital systems. The 0x prefix is used by many programming languages to denote a base-16 value, distinguishing it from decimal, octal, or binary literals.

Value: In decimal, 0x122F equals 4655. It is a 16-bit value, occupying the range 0x0000 to 0xFFFF. The specific meaning depends on context—often as a constant, an offset, or a bitmask.

Computing usage: In source code, 0x122F can be used to initialize variables, represent memory addresses in low-level programming, or specify flags in bitwise operations. Depending on the language and environment, it may be interpreted as signed or unsigned, and its width may be 8, 16, or 32 bits by default.

Unicode interpretation: If treated as a Unicode code point, 0x122F corresponds to U+122F, which lies in the Ethiopic block (U+1200–U+137F). The character is used in Ethiopic languages; the visible glyph depends on font support. In practice, 0x122F is read as a code point only when explicitly dealing with Unicode data.
