0xE08

0xE08 is a hexadecimal numeric literal used in computing to represent the decimal value 3592. The prefix 0x signals that the digits that follow are in base 16, with E representing 14, followed by 0 and 8, giving the overall value of 14×256 + 0×16 + 8 = 3592.

In programming languages such as C, C++, Java, JavaScript, and Python, 0xE08 is read as an unsigned or signed integer constant depending on the context and language rules. It is commonly employed in low-level code for numeric constants, bitwise operations, masks, offsets, or addressing. The corresponding binary pattern is 1110 0000 1000, reflecting its hexadecimal digits.

Context matters for interpretation. While 0xE08 can denote a specific value in code, it does not carry an inherent meaning outside that context. It is not a standard identifier, flag, or code on its own, and its significance depends on how the value is used within a given program, protocol, or dataset.

Color codes and other common hex notations typically use longer, fixed-length formats (such as 0xRRGGBB or 0xARGB). A three-digit hexadecimal literal like 0xE08 would normally be padded or expanded to a standard length in such contexts, for example 0x0E08.
