Description

The Unicode character U+1DE6 is known as the "COMBINING LATIN SMALL LETTER Z." This character serves a specific role in digital text by allowing users to modify and manipulate existing text, such as combining with other alphabetic characters to create unique symbols or accented letters. In terms of cultural, linguistic, or technical context, U+1DE6 is primarily used within the realm of typography for creating customized designs, branding elements, or other visual communications that require the utilization of special characters. It is not a character used in regular language or textual content, but rather a tool for graphic designers and typographers to add variation and creativity to their work. By focusing on accuracy and avoiding fluff, this character contributes to the versatility and expressiveness of digital text while maintaining its functional utility within specialized contexts.

How to type the symbol on Windows

Hold Alt and type 7654 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+1DE6. 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+1DE6 to binary: 00011101 11100110. 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:
    11100001 10110111 10100110
