Description

The Unicode character U+1B58 represents Balinese Digit Eight in typography and digital text. This numeral symbol is widely used in the Indonesian province of Bali for numerical representation within the Balinese script. The character plays a significant role in both traditional and modern forms of communication, especially in areas where Balinese culture and language are predominant. In digital texts, U+1B58 serves to accurately represent the eighth numeral in the Balinese number system, which is based on a decimal or base-10 system similar to the Arabic numerals used globally. Its inclusion in the Unicode standard ensures proper encoding and display of text across various platforms, supporting linguistic diversity and cultural preservation.

How to type the symbol on Windows

Hold Alt and type 7000 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+1B58. 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+1B58 to binary: 00011011 01011000. 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:
    11100001 10101101 10011000
