Description

The Unicode character U+086F (CHARACTER 086F) is a less commonly used symbol in the digital text realm. While it may not have an immediate recognizable function, it does have its own unique role when utilized. In certain programming contexts or specialized applications, this character might be employed for specific purposes such as control codes or metadata markers. It is important to note that characters like U+086F are often associated with legacy systems or less common encoding standards. While this character may not have a widespread usage in modern digital text, it serves as an interesting example of the vast range of symbols and characters available within the Unicode Standard, which works to ensure consistent representation across diverse languages and scripts.

How to type the symbol on Windows

Hold Alt and type 2159 on the numpad. Or use Character Map.

  1. Step 1: Determine the UTF-8 encoding bit layout

    The character has the Unicode code point U+086F. In UTF-8, it is encoded using 3 bytes because its codepoint is in the range of 0x0800 to 0xffff.

    Therefore we know that the UTF-8 encoding will be done over 16 bits within the final 24 bits and that it will have the format: 1110xxxx 10xxxxxx 10xxxxxx
    Where the x are the payload bits.

    UTF-8 Encoding bit layout by codepoint range
    Codepoint RangeBytesBit patternPayload length
    U+0000 - U+007F10xxxxxxx7 bits
    U+0080 - U+07FF2110xxxxx 10xxxxxx11 bits
    U+0800 - U+FFFF31110xxxx 10xxxxxx 10xxxxxx16 bits
    U+10000 - U+10FFFF411110xxx 10xxxxxx 10xxxxxx 10xxxxxx21 bits
  2. Step 2: Obtain the payload bits:

    Convert the hexadecimal code point U+086F to binary: 00001000 01101111. Those are the payload bits.

  3. Step 3: Fill in the bits to match the bit pattern:

    Obtain the final bytes by arranging the paylod bits to match the bit layout:
    11100000 10100001 10101111
