0x4E

0x4E is a hexadecimal literal commonly used in computing and programming. The prefix 0x signifies base-16 notation, so the digits that follow are interpreted as a hex number. In decimal, 0x4E equals 78. In binary, it is 01001110.

Encoding and character interpretation: In ASCII and Unicode, the value 0x4E corresponds to the Latin capital letter N (Unicode code point U+004E). This character is the 14th letter of the Latin alphabet and appears in many languages that use the Latin script.

Programming usage: As a numeric constant, 0x4E can appear in source code across languages such as C, C++, Java, JavaScript, Python, and Rust. It may also represent a byte value or an address in data and memory contexts. When used as a character code, the value 0x4E represents the letter 'N' in ASCII-compatible encodings.

Related concepts: The 0x prefix is a common convention for hexadecimal literals in many programming environments and data representations. The same numeric value can be used in various contexts, including numeric calculations, character encoding, and low-level data processing, depending on the surrounding application and data type. In ASCII and Unicode, the code point 004E maps to the character 'N', confirming the link between the hex value and its character representation.
