0x1C82

0x1C82 is a hexadecimal numeric literal commonly encountered in computing. Interpreted as a 16-bit value, it equals decimal 7,298. In binary it appears as 0001 1100 1000 0010, or as the continuous sequence 0001110010000010. The value comprises the high byte 0x1C and the low byte 0x82 in big-endian representation; in little-endian storage it is 0x82 followed by 0x1C.

In programming, 0x1C82 is used wherever a fixed 16-bit constant is needed, such as in bit masks, offsets, or literal data. It can be decomposed as 0x1C00 + 0x82; for example, shifting right by 8 yields 0x1C, and masking with 0x00FF yields 0x0082. Languages that support hexadecimal literals—such as C, C++, Java, JavaScript, and Python—allow writing values like 0x1C82 directly in source code.

The decimal factors of 7,298 are 2 × 41 × 89, a fact of arithmetic interest rather than practical significance in most coding tasks. Endianness is a common consideration when such values are stored in memory: a 16-bit 0x1C82 occupies two consecutive bytes, with the order depending on the system architecture.

0x1C82 does not denote a universal, widely recognized identifier on its own; its meaning is context-dependent and determined by how the surrounding software interprets the value, whether as an address, a flag, or part of a data structure.
