Description

The Unicode character U+33FE represents the IDEOGRAPHIC TELEGRAPH SYMBOL FOR DAY THIRTY-ONE in digital text. This symbol holds historical significance as it was widely used in traditional Japanese telegraphy, where each character corresponded to a specific numerical value when combined with other symbols. Although its usage has dwindled due to the prevalence of modern technology and digitization, this symbol is still significant for those studying or preserving the history of Japanese telegraphy.

How to type the symbol on Windows

Hold Alt and type 13310 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+33FE. 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+33FE to binary: 00110011 11111110. 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:
    11100011 10001111 10111110
