1111110

1111110 is a binary numeral consisting of six consecutive ones followed by a zero, making it a seven-digit binary string. When interpreted as an unsigned binary number, it equals 126 in decimal. In hexadecimal, the value is 0x7E, and as an 8-bit byte it is commonly written as 01111110, still representing 126.

The meaning of 1111110 can change with context and bit width. As a 7-bit value in two’s complement representation, 1111110 encodes -2. This illustrates how the same bit pattern can have different numeric interpretations depending on whether the width is 7 bits or 8 bits, and whether a signed or unsigned interpretation is used.

In character encoding, decimal 126 corresponds to the tilde character "~" in standard ASCII. Thus the binary pattern 1111110 is related to the ASCII tilde when mapped to textual data in systems that use 7-bit or 8-bit ASCII.

As a practical bit pattern, 1111110 can function as a simple bitmask with the least significant bit cleared (bit 0 is 0) and the next six bits set to 1. Such a pattern can appear in low-level programming for masking operations, tests, or specific control schemes, depending on the surrounding code and width.

There is no widely recognized term or event specifically associated with the string 1111110 beyond its roles as a binary representation and its related numerical, encoding, and masking interpretations.
