0xEF2

0xEF2 is a hexadecimal integer literal commonly encountered in programming and computing. In decimal form, the value is 3826.

As a hex value, it expands to binary as 1110 1111 0010. In a 16-bit representation it can be written as 0000 1110 1111 0010. In octal, the same value is 7362 (often written as 0o7362 in languages that require an explicit prefix).

Common uses for a hex literal like 0xEF2 include representing a specific bit pattern for hardware registers, memory offsets, or constant values in source code. Hex notation is popular in low-level programming because each hex digit maps directly to four binary bits, making bitwise operations (AND, OR, XOR, shifts) easier to read and compare. It may also be used in debugging output, protocol constants, or color data in some contexts, though 0xEF2 by itself is not a complete color specification.

Unicode reference: if interpreted as a Unicode code point U+0EF2, it belongs to the Lao block in the Unicode standard. The actual glyph and its meaning depend on the font and rendering system. The numeric value 0xEF2 is a separate numeric construct from its potential use as a Unicode code point; context determines its interpretation.

In summary, 0xEF2 is a three-digit hexadecimal literal with a decimal value of 3826, commonly used for precise binary-aligned values in programming and hardware contexts, and it may correspond to a Unicode code point in a different interpretation.
