Description

U+2439 is a Unicode character code that represents the typographical symbol "PARAGRAPH SEPARATOR." This character plays a crucial role in digital text, particularly in typesetting documents where consistent formatting and layout are essential. It acts as a separator between paragraphs, ensuring that text remains clear and legible for readers. The PARAGRAPH SEPARATOR (U+2439) is widely used across various platforms and applications to maintain the structural integrity of textual content, making it an indispensable tool for modern digital typography.

How to type the symbol on Windows

Hold Alt and type 9273 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+2439. 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+2439 to binary: 00100100 00111001. 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 10010000 10111001
