101111010010

101111010010 is a binary numeral comprising 12 bits. In unsigned form it represents the decimal number 3026. When expressed in hexadecimal, the value is 0xBD2, and in octal it is 05722. The last bit is 0, indicating the value is even, while the most significant bit is 1, reflecting the nonzero magnitude in this 12-bit representation. Grouped into 4-bit nibbles, the pattern is 1011 1101 0010, corresponding to the hex digits B, D, and 2.

If interpreted as a 12-bit two's complement signed integer, the value is -1070, since the range for 12-bit signed integers is -2048 to 2047 and 2^12 minus 3026 equals 1070.

In computing contexts, such a binary string can serve as a literal constant in code, as a memory address segment, or as a test pattern for bitwise operations. It does not encode standard ASCII or Unicode characters by itself; as a 12-bit value, it does not map to a single-byte ASCII character. If extended into two bytes or padded, it could be involved in various encodings but is not inherently meaningful on its own.

The sequence illustrates basic base conversions and bit-pattern interpretation, and it serves as a concrete example of how a fixed binary string corresponds to multiple numeric representations. For context, see the binary numeral system.
