Description

The Unicode character U+2567 represents the "BOX DRAWINGS UP SINGLE AND HORIZONTAL DOUBLE" symbol, which plays a significant role in digital text as a form of typographical element used for creating simple ASCII art or as part of graphical user interface (GUI) elements. This character is part of the Box Drawing category within Unicode, alongside other similar characters such as U+2502 (BOX DRAWINGS UP DOUBLE AND HORIZONTAL SINGLE), U+251C (BOX DRAWINGS UP SINGLE AND LEFT DOUBLE), and U+2534 (BOX DRAWINGS UP DOUBLE AND RIGHT SINGLE). While these characters may not have notable cultural, linguistic, or technical contexts on their own, they can contribute to the overall appearance and usability of digital content.

How to type the symbol on Windows

Hold Alt and type 9575 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+2567. 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+2567 to binary: 00100101 01100111. 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:
    11100010 10010101 10100111
