Explanation:
Detailed explanation-1: -The word “Hexadecimal” means sixteen because this type of digital numbering system uses 16 different digits from 0-to-9, and A-to-F.
Detailed explanation-2: -The prefix 0x is used in code to indicate that the number is being written in hex. But what is ‘B’ doing in there?
