10011001000010
10011001000010 is a binary numeral consisting of fourteen bits. When interpreted as an unsigned integer, it equals 9794 in decimal and 0x2642 in hexadecimal. The binary value can be verified by grouping into four-bit blocks after padding to sixteen bits: 0010011001000010, which corresponds to hex 0x2642 and decimal 9794.
Because the leftmost bit is 1, the same bit pattern would represent, in a fourteen-bit two's-complement signed
Length of fourteen bits means it is not a standard 8- or 16-bit byte boundary; such sequences
Overall, without additional context, 10011001000010 is primarily a numeric binary string whose decimal value is 9794,
