0x13A2

0x13A2 is a hexadecimal numeral, written with the 0x prefix that is commonly used in programming and digital systems to denote the integer value 0x13A2. In decimal notation, this value equals 5026. The representation is frequently used as a numeric constant, a memory address, a register selector, or a bitfield in software and hardware designs.

In Unicode, the code point U+13A2 resides in the Ethiopic block. Although sometimes discussed in hexadecimal form as 0x13A2 in programming or documentation, the standard Unicode spelling uses the prefix U+. The two forms refer to related but distinct labeling conventions, with U+13A2 identifying a specific character code point.

Endianness: When stored as a 16-bit value, 0x13A2 appears as the bytes 13 A2 in big-endian systems and A2 13 in little-endian systems. This matters for data interpretation in binary files, network protocols, and low-level programming.

Context matters: In practice, 0x13A2 may appear in source code, configuration files, binary data, or protocol specifications. Without context, its meaning is limited to the numeric value rather than any domain-specific interpretation.
