Description

The Unicode character U+2450 (CHARACTER 2450) is a specific typographical symbol with a unique role in digital text. It belongs to the range of Private Use characters, which are reserved for private use by organizations and individuals. These characters are not assigned standard meanings or functions within Unicode, allowing their creators to define custom purposes for them. This flexibility makes CHARACTER 2450 useful in various applications such as branding, product identification, or specific industry terminologies where a unique symbol is needed. It can be used alongside other text elements or symbols to convey information in a more creative and distinctive manner. However, it's important to note that because of its private usage, CHARACTER 2450 may not be universally recognized or understood across different systems or cultures without prior context or agreement on its meaning.

How to type the symbol on Windows

Hold Alt and type 9296 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+2450. 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+2450 to binary: 00100100 01010000. 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 10010001 10010000
