16 (number) 0 to 15 in each column. Sixteen is an even number and a square number. Sixteen is the fourth power of two.

It is also equal to 2 (see tetration). 16 is the base of the hexadecimal number system, which is used extensively in computer science. In Spanish and Portuguese, 16 is the first compound number (Spanish: "dieciséis", European Portuguese: "dezasseis", Brazilian Portuguese: "dezesseis");
