Description

U+06F2 is a character from the Extended Arabic-Indic Digit block of Unicode, representing the numeral "2" in Arabic typography. This digit is commonly used within digital text for various applications, including numerical representation in documents and data processing systems that require support for multiple scripts. The Extended Arabic-Indic Digits include characters U+06F0 to U+06FF, which were added to the Unicode Standard to provide an expanded set of digits for use within Arabic typography. These digits are crucial for ensuring accurate and efficient communication in languages that rely on Arabic numerals, such as Urdu and other Indo-Aryan languages. The U+06F2 character plays a significant role in maintaining the integrity of numerical data within digital texts and applications, contributing to precise language representation and comprehension in these linguistic contexts.

How to type the ۲ symbol on Windows

Hold Alt and type 1778 on the numpad. Or use Character Map.

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

    The character ۲ has the Unicode code point U+06F2. 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+06F2 to binary: 00000110 11110010. 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:
