Description

The Unicode character U+3352 represents the "SQUARE RIRA" symbol (㊂). This character is predominantly used in digital text for its unique appearance and as a special symbol within various applications and websites, particularly those focusing on typography or design. Despite its aesthetic value, the SQUARE RIRA does not hold any significant cultural, linguistic, or technical context. It is considered a miscellaneous symbol in the Unicode standard and is mainly used for decorative purposes or as an emblematic representation of creativity within textual content.

How to type the symbol on Windows

Hold Alt and type 13138 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+3352. 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+3352 to binary: 00110011 01010010. 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 10001101 10010010
