0x142A

0x142A is a hexadecimal numeral commonly used in computing and digital contexts. The prefix 0x signals that the following digits are in base 16. The digits 1, 4, 2, and A correspond to decimal values 1, 4, 2, and 10, respectively, making the full value 5162 in decimal.

In programming, 0x142A may appear as a literal constant in languages such as C, C++, Java, JavaScript, or Rust. It can represent a small integer, a bit pattern, or a numeric offset, depending on how the value is used. As a 16-bit value, its binary representation is 0001 0100 0010 1010.

In Unicode notation, code points are often written in hexadecimal. A code point written as U+142A would designate a specific character in the Unicode standard. The exact character depends on the Unicode chart and its assigned script or symbol.

In other domains, 0x142A can serve as an identifier or part of a protocol field, a hardware register address offset, or a memory address component within a larger addressing scheme. Because hexadecimal strings are context-dependent, the meaning of 0x142A varies with the system or specification in which it appears.
