Simulator showing wrong input

I have written a testbench for a program in verilog. The weird problem is the simulator is showing input completely different compared to the one I have provided as input. Thus the output is also affected. Why is this happening? I am testing the code in Xilinx. Here is the test bench

my input is 1010101 simulator is showing 0110101

module HamDecoderTop;

// Inputs
reg clk;
reg rst;
reg [6:0] hword;

// Outputs
wire [3:0] data;


HammingDecoder uut (
    .clk(clk), 
    .rst(rst), 
    .hword(hword), 
    .data(data)
);

initial begin
    // Initialize Inputs
    clk = 0;
    rst = 0;

    #1 rst =1;

    #10 hword = 1010101;


end

always
#2 clk=~clk;

endmodule

Here is what simulator is showing.

You need to prepend your hword literal value with a 7'b if you want it to be interpreted as a seven bit binary. By default it's interpreted as a decimal value 1,010,101, which when converted to binary, is 11110110100110110101. The first 7 bits of this binary number is what you're seeing in the simulator.
