0x9CC

0x9CC is a hexadecimal literal used in programming. The prefix 0x denotes base-16 notation, and the digits that follow are interpreted as a hexadecimal number. The value 0x9CC represents the decimal number 2508. This form appears in many languages, including C, C++, Java, JavaScript, and Python, where it is used to specify numeric constants or bit patterns.

In binary, 0x9CC is 1001 1100 1100, which is 100111001100. In octal, it is 4714. The decimal value remains 2508, with the hexadecimal digits 9, C, and C corresponding to 9, 12, and 12 in their respective positions (9 in the 16^2 place, and 12 in the 16^1 and 16^0 places).

In code, 0x9CC can be assigned to a variable to represent a constant or a bit field. For example, in C-like languages you might see int x = 0x9CC; or in JavaScript const x = 0x9CC;. The value is the same regardless of how it is displayed, illustrating how hex literals map to their decimal, binary, and octal equivalents.

Care should be taken not to confuse 0x9CC with the CSS color shorthand #9cc, which represents a color value rather than a numeric constant. The two sequences share the same digits but serve different domains and meanings in software development.
