0xC1F

0xC1F is a hexadecimal numeral prefixed with 0x, a common convention in computing to denote hex values. In decimal, 0xC1F equals 3103 (C=12, 1=1, F=15; 12×256 + 1×16 + 15 = 3103). Hexadecimal notation is widely used because it maps neatly to binary and is compact for representing memory addresses, bit patterns, and constants.

In programming, 0xC1F commonly appears as a numeric literal. It can serve as a constant, a bitmask, a part of a register or memory address, or as part of larger hexadecimal sequences. This usage spans many languages, including C, C++, Java, JavaScript, and Python. For example, in C or JavaScript, a variable defined as 0xC1F will hold the integer value 3103; similarly in Python, x = 0xC1F assigns 3103 to x.

Notes on representation and context: the leading 0x prefix simply indicates hexadecimal notation; leading zeros can be added without changing the value (e.g., 0x0C1F equals 0xC1F). The meaning and interpretation of 0xC1F can vary by context, so its exact significance depends on where it appears—such as source code, documentation, or a data specification.
