Can I use a binary literal in C or C++?

Question

I need to work with a binary number.

I tried writing:

const x = 00010000;

But it didn\'t work.

I know that I can use an hex

If you are using GCC then you can use a GCC extension (which is included in the C++14 standard) for this:

int x = 0b00010000;
