Description

The Unicode character U+047E, Cyrillic Capital Letter Ot (О), is a crucial element in the Russian and other Cyrillic-based languages. It primarily serves as a letter of the alphabet within these linguistic systems, used for both written and digital communication. As an uppercase version of the Cyrillic script's 10th letter, its role is significant in phonetics and grammar of these languages. In terms of cultural, linguistic, or technical context, it plays a pivotal role in encoding and decoding text from these language systems. Its presence in digital text underlines the importance of Unicode, which standardizes characters across various programming platforms to ensure accurate representation and prevent miscommunication. Although often overshadowed by more familiar alphabets, its vital function within the Cyrillic script is indispensable for maintaining clarity and fidelity in Russian and related language communications.

How to type the Ѿ symbol on Windows

Hold Alt and type 1150 on the numpad. Or use Character Map.

  1. Step 1: Determine the UTF-8 encoding bit layout

    The character Ѿ has the Unicode code point U+047E. 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+047E to binary: 00000100 01111110. 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:
