0x15A5

0x15A5 is a hexadecimal literal used in programming and computing. The prefix 0x denotes base-16 notation, and the digits 1, 5, A, 5 form the value. As an unsigned integer, 0x15A5 equals 5541 in decimal.

In binary, 0x15A5 expands to 0001 0101 1010 0101, representing 16 bits. Hex literals like 0x15A5 are common across languages such as C, C++, Java, and Python, where the 0x prefix signals a hexadecimal constant. They are often employed in bitwise operations, masks, and compact representations.

Depending on context, 0x15A5 may appear in memory dumps, example code, or protocol specifications as a generic value. It can also be interpreted as a 16-bit color value in certain RGB schemes (for example, RGB565), in which case the exact color depends on how the bits are allocated.

Because hexadecimal values are frequently used to illustrate conversions and bit-level reasoning, 0x15A5 serves as a typical example without implying a fixed meaning beyond its numeric value. Converting between hexadecimal, decimal, and binary is straightforward: 0x15A5 = 5541 (decimal) = 0001 0101 1010 0101 (binary).
