0x1E03

0x1E03 is a hexadecimal literal commonly encountered in computing and digital data. In hexadecimal notation, the prefix 0x signals base-16 representation, and 1E03 is the four-digit value.

Numerical value and representation

0x1E03 converts to decimal 7683. In binary, it is 0001 1110 0000 0011, fitting within 16 bits. As an unsigned 16-bit value, it remains 7683; as a signed 16-bit value, it is still interpreted as 7683 since the leading bit is 0.

Unicode and character encoding context

When considered as a code point, the hexadecimal sequence 1E03 corresponds to the Unicode code point U+1E03, which lies in the Latin Extended Additional block. The exact character shown by U+1E03 depends on font and rendering system. In Unicode nomenclature, code points are commonly written as U+1E03 rather than 0x1E03, but some documents use the latter form interchangeably for compact hexadecimal references.

Programming and data applications

In programming languages that support hexadecimal literals, 0x1E03 denotes the integer value 7683. It can appear in code as a constant, an opcode, an index, or a memory-related value in contexts involving 16-bit data types, bitwise operations, or protocol fields. Its meaning is context-dependent and lacks intrinsic semantics without accompanying documentation.

Color and binary data encodings

If interpreted as a 24-bit color value with zero padding (00 1E 03 in hexadecimal), 0x001E03 corresponds to RGB components red=0, green=30, blue=3. In various binary formats, 16-bit values like 0x1E03 may be stored in big-endian or little-endian order, altering byte sequence in transit or storage.
