0x160A is a hexadecimal numeric literal used in computing to represent a specific integer value. The 0x prefix indicates that the digits that follow are in base 16. The value 0x160A corresponds to the decimal number 5642, and in binary it can be written as 0001 0110 0000 1010. In octal, this value is 13012.

In programming, hex literals such as 0x160A are common for representing constants, bit masks, memory addresses, offsets, or flags. They appear in multiple languages that support hexadecimal notation, including C, C++, Java, JavaScript, and Python. Using hex can make it easier to read or manipulate individual bits, nibble-level fields, or align with hardware specifications.

If interpreted as a Unicode code point, 0x160A corresponds to U+160A. This places it in the Canadian Aboriginal Syllabics block of the Unicode standard, a range used for writing systems of Indigenous peoples in Canada. The actual character shown depends on font support and rendering in the environment being used.

Beyond these contexts, 0x160A may appear in memory dumps, firmware, or protocol specifications as part of larger hex values or identifiers. As a standalone literal, it simply encodes the integer value 5642 in hexadecimal form. Its meaning in any given usage depends on the surrounding context, such as the data structure or hardware specification it is part of.
