10011010000000

10011010000000 is a binary numeral consisting of 14 digits (bits). In binary notation, each bit represents a successive power of two, from the most significant bit at 2^13 down to the least significant bit at 2^0.

As a value, this 14-bit pattern equals 9856 in decimal. It can be verified by summing the powers corresponding to the 1 bits: 2^13 + 2^10 + 2^9 + 2^7 = 8192 + 1024 + 512 + 128 = 9856. In hexadecimal, the same value is 0x2680 (when padded to a full 16-bit width: 0010011010000000).

This pattern can be represented in programming languages as a binary literal, for example 0b10011010000000 in languages that support binary syntax. If embedded in a larger bit width, the same sequence may act as a bit pattern or mask, depending on how the bits are interpreted in a given context.

In broader terms, 10011010000000 is a concrete example of positional notation in base-2, illustrating how a string of 0s and 1s encodes a specific integer. Such binary strings are fundamental in digital electronics, computer architecture, and low-level programming, where they are used to represent numbers, flags, or data at the bit level.
