0x29E

0x29E is a hexadecimal notation that commonly denotes the decimal value 670 in programming and computing contexts. The 0x prefix signals a hexadecimal literal in many languages, including C, C++, Java, JavaScript, and Python. In source code, 0x29E may appear as a numeric constant, a bitmask, an index, or an address depending on the surrounding context.

In Unicode, the hex value 29E corresponds to the code point U+029E. This code point is named LATIN SMALL LETTER TURNED K and is part of the IPA Extensions block. The glyph associated with U+029E is ʞ, a Latin letter that resembles a lowercase k flipped or turned in its orientation.

The character ʞ is a specialized symbol used primarily in phonetic transcription and certain linguistic notation. It is not part of standard modern alphabets for everyday languages, and font support for the glyph varies. In most ordinary text, the character may not render if the chosen font lacks the glyph.

Practically, treating 0x29E as a value means recognizing it as 670 in decimal form, whereas treating U+029E as a character means recognizing the symbol ʞ as part of a linguistic or phonetic repertoire. The two representations share the same underlying numeric value but belong to different domains—numerical literals versus encoded characters.
