Description

U+2864 is a Braille Pattern Dots-367 character used in digital text to represent the numeral 1 when transcribing numbers into the Braille writing system. This Unicode character is essential for visually impaired users who rely on Braille for communication and reading material, as it enables them to access digital content with ease. The Braille Pattern Dots-367 represents different values depending on its position within a cell in a Braille table, making it a versatile character in the Braille system. As an important component of digital text accessibility, U+2864 contributes significantly to inclusivity and equal access to information for people with visual impairments.

How to type the symbol on Windows

Hold Alt and type 10340 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+2864. 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+2864 to binary: 00101000 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:
    11100010 10100001 10100100
