I came across a line of code which had something like the below

#define IM 0x1

I do know what IM stands for, but I am intrested in knowing what 0x1 stands for and what is its use and its significance for usage in define statements.

I am new to C and I did search for this particular item but could not find it. Thanks in advance for all your help.

    It is the hexadecimal number 1, usually define like this when doing binary flags. So you would have

    0x1
    0x2
    0x4
    0x8
    0x10
    

    so you can see the bits you are setting.
