0x225

0x225 is a hexadecimal literal commonly used in computing to denote the decimal value 549. It appears in source code, data files, and configuration where precise numeric constants are needed.

In decimal, 0x225 equals 549. In binary, it is 0b0010 0010 0101, with the set bits at positions 9, 5, 2, and 0. The 0x prefix denotes hexadecimal notation in many programming languages, making 0x225 a concise way to express a 12-bit value.

Common contexts for 0x225 include programming and data encoding. It may be used as a numeric constant, in bitwise operations, for memory addressing, or as part of a bitmask or register value in hardware-related code. Because it uses three hex digits, it represents a compact 12-bit quantity, which can be advantageous in certain low-level or compact data formats.

Unicode connection: the numeric value 0x225 corresponds to the Unicode code point U+0225, which is the character ȥ (Latin small letter z with a dot above). In some programming tasks, 0x225 may be used as a code point value in escapes or conversions, depending on the encoding in use.

Examples: in C, unsigned int a = 0x225; in Python, hex(549) returns '0x225'. In debugging outputs or hexadecimal dumps, you may also encounter 0x225 as part of a larger data sequence or mask.
