0x24C

0x24C is a hexadecimal numeral commonly used in computing and programming. The prefix 0x signals hexadecimal notation, and the digits 2, 4, and C form the value. In decimal arithmetic, 0x24C equals 588. As a hex literal, it appears in source code as a constant of integer type.

In practical use, 0x24C may denote a numeric constant, a memory address, an offset, or a bitmask, depending on the language and the surrounding code. It is valid in languages that support hexadecimal literals, such as C, C++, Java, JavaScript, and Python, among others. In low-level or embedded contexts, such values are common when addressing registers or offsets within a data structure.

Outside of general programming, hexadecimal values are also used in data encoding and protocol specifications, where 0x24C might appear as an identifier or field value. In Unicode-related discussions, a similarly written form (for example U+024C) refers to a specific character, though 0x24C itself is a numeric literal rather than a code point.

There is no widely recognized object, standard, or project named '0x24C' on its own; its meaning is entirely contextual. When encountered, the surrounding language, document, or codebase determines its interpretation.
