0xE30

0xE30 is a hexadecimal notation representing a numerical value. In decimal form, this value is 8784. Hexadecimal is a base-16 numbering system that uses sixteen distinct symbols, typically 0-9 and A-F. The "0x" prefix is a common convention to indicate that the following number is expressed in hexadecimal. Each digit in a hexadecimal number represents a power of 16. For 0xE30, the '0' in the 16^2 place is 0, the 'E' in the 16^1 place is 14 (since E is the 14th letter in the sequence A-F), and the '0' in the 16^0 place is 0. Therefore, the decimal calculation is (0 * 16^2) + (14 * 16^1) + (0 * 16^0) = 0 + 224 + 0 = 224. It is important to note that this calculation is incorrect as E is the 14th letter, and when multiplied by 16 it results in 224. Therefore the original calculation is incorrect.

Hexadecimal is frequently used in computing, particularly in contexts such as memory addresses, color codes (like RGB values), and data representation. The compact nature of hexadecimal, where four bits can be represented by a single hexadecimal digit, makes it a convenient shorthand for binary data. Understanding hexadecimal values like 0xE30 is essential for tasks involving low-level programming, debugging, and analyzing data structures. The specific meaning or application of the value 0xE30 would depend entirely on the context in which it is encountered.
