11001000

11001000 is an eight-bit binary value commonly encountered in digital systems. In binary notation it is written as eight digits, where the leftmost bit is the most significant. The unsigned decimal value of 11001000 is 200. In hexadecimal it is 0xC8, and in octal it is 0o310. As a Unicode code unit, 0xC8 corresponds to the character È (U+00C8).

As a signed 8-bit number using two's complement, 11001000 represents -56. This is calculated by subtracting 256 from the unsigned value (200 - 256 = -56). The sign bit (the leftmost bit) is 1, indicating a negative value in two's complement representation.

In computing, a single byte such as 11001000 can serve as data in memory or as a bit mask. The bits set to 1 are in positions 7, 6, and 3 (counting from the least significant bit at position 0). Such patterns may encode flags, color channel values in 8-bit color schemes, or part of larger byte streams.

Although 0xC8 can correspond to a printable Latin-1 character in extended ASCII, standard ASCII does not define this value as a printable character. In Unicode, U+00C8 represents È. The meaning of 11001000 depends on context, including endianness, data type, and surrounding bytes; as a raw value it is simply a common example of an 8-bit binary pattern.
