0xDCB

0xDCB is a hexadecimal number, which is a base-16 numeral system used in computing and digital electronics. In hexadecimal, the digits range from 0 to 9 and then A to F, where A represents 10, B represents 11, and so on up to F, which represents 15. The number 0xDCB can be converted to decimal by evaluating each digit's position and multiplying it by 16 raised to the power of its position index, starting from the right (where the rightmost position is 0). Therefore, 0xDCB in decimal is 3531. Hexadecimal numbers are commonly used in computer programming, digital electronics, and various other fields where binary or decimal systems may be too cumbersome or inefficient. They are particularly useful for representing large numbers in a more compact form and for working with binary data. The prefix "0x" is often used to denote a hexadecimal number in programming languages and documentation.
