Description

The COMBINING CYRILLIC HUNDRED THOUSANDS SIGN (U+0488) is a typographical character primarily used in digital text for Cyrillic script-based languages, such as Russian or Ukrainian. It serves as a combining mark that can be placed above digits to represent numbers in the range of one hundred thousand to nine hundred ninety-nine thousand. This character helps to differentiate between tens and hundreds of thousands when used in conjunction with numeric figures. In terms of its cultural, linguistic, and technical context, the COMBINING CYRILLIC HUNDRED THOUSANDS SIGN is a vital tool for accurately conveying large numerical values within digital texts written using the Cyrillic script system.

How to type the ҈ symbol on Windows

Hold Alt and type 1160 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+0488. In UTF-8, it is encoded using 2 bytes because its codepoint is in the range of 0x0080 to 0x07ff.

    Therefore we know that the UTF-8 encoding will be done over 11 bits within the final 16 bits and that it will have the format: 110xxxxx 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+0488 to binary: 00000100 10001000. 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:
