0xDD3

0xDD3 is a hexadecimal numeric literal used in computing to denote the integer whose digits are DD3. In decimal form, this value equals 3539. In binary, 0xDD3 is 110111010011, illustrating how hexadecimal digits map to a compact binary representation.

The 0x prefix is a common convention in many programming languages to indicate that the following digits represent a base-16 number. Languages such as C, C++, Java, JavaScript, Python, and many others support hex literals with this prefix, and 0xDD3 can be used wherever an integer constant is required. Depending on the context, it may serve as a simple numeric value, a bit mask, an identifier in a data format, or an address segment in low-level code, among other possibilities.

Because 0xDD3 is three hex digits, it is often treated as a small value in 12-bit or byte-oriented contexts when padded. For example, it can be extended to 0x0DD3 in 16-bit representations. Its remainder when divided by 16 is 3, reflecting its least-significant hex digit.

There is no widely recognized meaning or entity uniquely associated with the specific string 0xDD3 beyond its role as a hex representation of the number 3539. In documentation or source code, it will typically be understood as a literal value rather than as a standalone concept or name.
