10100101

10100101 is an eight-bit binary numeral. Its meaning depends on the context in which it appears, but as a standalone pattern it represents a specific byte value.

As an unsigned byte, 10100101_2 equals 165 in decimal and 0xA5 in hexadecimal. The sequence is a palindrome, reading the same forward and backward (10100101).

If interpreted as an 8-bit signed value using two's complement, 10100101 represents -91.

In character encoding terms, the byte 0xA5 commonly maps to the Yen sign in ISO/IEC 8859-1 and Windows-1252, and to the Unicode code point U+00A5 for the Yen symbol. In other Unicode encodings, the same binary value may correspond to different characters if different encodings are assumed.

In computing and data contexts, 10100101 can appear as part of binary data, as a flag pattern, or within a byte stream. It is also common to display such values with prefixes like 0b10100101 or grouped as 1010 0101 for readability.

Summary: 10100101 is a specific 8-bit binary pattern with multiple interpretations—an unsigned byte value of 165, a signed value of -91 in two’s complement, and a character encoding reference to the Yen sign depending on the encoding used.
