10110

10110 is a binary numeral consisting of five bits. In unsigned interpretation it represents decimal 22.

In hexadecimal it's 0x16; in 8-bit binary it's 00010110. The five-bit form 10110 can be used as a compact bit pattern in digital representations, where each position corresponds to a power of two and the value is calculated as 1×2^4 + 0×2^3 + 1×2^2 + 1×2^1 + 0×2^0 = 22.

As a bit pattern, the digits can encode flags or features, with 1 indicating an enabled state and 0 indicating disabled. The sequence from most significant to least significant bit in 10110 is 1, 0, 1, 1, 0.

In a signed interpretation using five-bit two's complement, 10110 represents -10. This arises from flipping the bits to get 01001, adding one to obtain 01010 (decimal 10), and then taking the negative.

In computing and digital electronics, five-bit sequences like 10110 are common in teaching binary arithmetic, small-scale encoding schemes, and demonstrations of bitwise operations. Outside numeric value, the exact string 10110 may appear in identifiers, problem statements, or examples where a concise binary pattern is needed.
