0x214D

0x214D is a hexadecimal numeric literal frequently encountered in computing and digital systems. The prefix 0x indicates base-16 notation, and the digits 2, 1, 4, and D (where D represents the decimal value 13) compose the four-digit hex number. In decimal terms, 0x214D equals 8525. Such literals are used in source code, data files, and configuration settings as constants, addresses, or identifiers, depending on the programming language and the surrounding context.

If the value 0x214D is treated as a Unicode code point, it corresponds to the code point U+214D. This places it within the Unicode Letterlike Symbols block, which contains characters used to represent mathematical and reference-like notations. The exact glyph associated with U+214D, and its availability, depend on font support and rendering software. In many environments, some fonts may not include this particular symbol, resulting in a missing glyph or a placeholder.

Beyond Unicode, 0x214D can appear in various technical contexts as a generic 16-bit value. It may appear in binary data, low-level device interfaces, or as part of protocol fields where fixed-width hexadecimal representations are customary. As with other hex literals, its interpretation is context dependent and determined by the surrounding code, data schema, and platform conventions.
