And your point is?

One hex digit represents 4 binary digits. What Walter said is 
correct.

I would also add that talking about user-friendly/unfriendly 
doesn't make a lot of sense unless you state the purpose of the 
literal. If I wanted to initialize an int to the number of states 
in the US, no one sane would write
````
int n_us_states = 0b110010
````
If I were defining a mask to extract a field from a hardware 
register, I might use a binary literal, though I personally would 
use the shifting technique I described in an earlier post.
