Description

U+0664 is the Unicode character code for the Arabic numeral digit "Four" (أربع). In digital texts, this character represents the number four within the Arabic numeral system, which is widely used across many languages and cultures. Arabic numerals are a decimal system, meaning they consist of ten distinct symbols (0-9) to represent values, including U+0664 representing the value of four. This numeral digit is derived from the ancient Brahmi numeral system and was further developed by Islamic mathematicians in the Middle Ages. Today, U+0664 plays a vital role in various fields such as mathematics, computing, and programming languages, where it helps communicate numerical information accurately across multiple cultures and scripts.

How to type the ٤ symbol on Windows

Hold Alt and type 1636 on the numpad. Or use Character Map.

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

    The character ٤ has the Unicode code point U+0664. In UTF-8, it is encoded using 2 bytes because its codepoint is in the range of 0x0080 to 0x07ff.

    Therefore we know that the UTF-8 encoding will be done over 11 bits within the final 16 bits and that it will have the format: 110xxxxx 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+0664 to binary: 00000110 01100100. 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:
