0x2BE

0x2BE is a hexadecimal integer literal used in many programming languages to denote a value in base-16. The digits 2, B, and E encode the value; when interpreted as base-16, 0x2BE equals 702 in decimal.

In binary, 0x2BE corresponds to 0010 1011 1110, a 12-bit representation (leading zeros may be added to fit a fixed width). Hex literals are commonly used for readability and to express bit patterns, masks, offsets, and hardware register values. Because the 0x prefix signals hexadecimal notation, the same sequence of digits written without the prefix would be interpreted in a different base by most languages.

In actual code, 0x2BE is treated as an integer constant. It can participate in arithmetic, bitwise operations, comparisons, and array indexing, depending on the language and context. Some languages require explicit type context or cast operations if a specific width or signedness is needed. As with other numeric literals, 0x2BE can be combined with operators to perform tasks such as masking, shifting, or encoding protocol fields.

In Unicode and data encoding contexts, hexadecimal numbers like 0x2BE are often used to reference code points or byte values. For example, the code point U+02BE corresponds numerically to 0x02BE, linking hex notation to standardized character encoding.

Overall, 0x2BE serves as a concise representation of a decimal value in computing, enabling clear expression of numeric constants, bit-level operations, and encoding references.
