0x3569

0x3569 is a hexadecimal number, which is a base-16 numeral system used in computing and digital electronics. In decimal notation, 0x3569 is equivalent to 13673. Hexadecimal is widely used in computer science for representing binary-coded values in a more human-readable form. It is particularly useful for tasks such as memory addressing, color coding in web design, and representing machine code instructions.

The hexadecimal system uses the digits 0-9 and the letters A-F to represent values. Each digit in a hexadecimal number represents a power of 16. For example, in 0x3569, the '3' represents 3 times 16^3, the '5' represents 5 times 16^2, the '6' represents 6 times 16^1, and the '9' represents 9 times 16^0. When these values are summed, the result is 13673 in decimal.

Hexadecimal notation is often prefixed with '0x' to distinguish it from decimal numbers. This prefix is not part of the numerical value but serves as a convention to indicate that the number is in hexadecimal form. The use of hexadecimal is essential in various fields of computer science, including programming, digital electronics, and data storage.
