0xC36

0xC36 is a hexadecimal numeric literal. In many programming languages, literals that begin with 0x denote values written in base-16, distinguishing them from decimal or other radices. The exact interpretation of 0xC36 depends on the surrounding code, but as a standalone value it represents a specific integer constant.

Interpreting 0xC36 yields a decimal value of 3126. In binary, it is 1100 0011 0110. Hex literals like this are commonly used in programming for purposes such as defining constants, specifying memory addresses, configuring bit flags, or constructing bit masks. They are language-agnostic in concept, though exact syntax can vary (for example, some languages require 0x for hex literals, others use different prefixes or formats).

It is important to note that 0xC36 is not, by itself, a universally meaningful identifier. Its meaning is contingent on context: the same literal could represent different constants in different programs or libraries. Therefore, without accompanying documentation or source code context, 0xC36 does not point to a specific real-world object, project, or standard.

In discussions of color representation, a three-digit hex color like #C36 exists, but it follows the #RGB format rather than the 0x prefix. Similarly, in Unicode or other standards, code points are typically written in formats like U+0C36, which are distinct from the 0x-prefixed hex literals used in most programming languages.
