0x2B9

0x2B9 is a hexadecimal numeral used in computing to denote the value 697 in decimal. The 0x prefix signals hex notation in many programming languages, including C, C++, JavaScript, Python, and Java.

In binary, 697 is represented as 1010111001. In octal, it is 1271 (base 8). The decimal value 697 factors as 17 × 41, making it a composite number. It lies within the range of three-digit hex values (000 to FFF) and can appear as part of memory addresses, color component calculations, or other low-level representations in code.

In the Unicode standard, the code point U+02B9 corresponds numerically to 0x02B9, equal to 697. This code point is named MODIFIER LETTER PRIME and is used in phonetic transcription as a diacritic-like modifier sign. The character rendering is typically "ʹ" and its usage is independent of hex numeric literals, but the shared numeric value makes the same hex notation relevant in discussions of character encoding and Unicode code charts.

As a general concept, 0x2B9 illustrates how hexadecimal literals encode small integers across software systems, data formats, and internationalization work. See also: hexadecimal notation, Unicode code points, binary and octal representations.
