U+2789 is a Dingbat character within the Unicode standard, specifically categorized as a "Dingbat Circled Sans-Serif Number Ten". Dingbats are symbolic images or characters used for decorative purposes in typography and graphic design. This particular dingbat represents the numeral '10' encapsulated within a circle. It is often employed to visually separate sections of text or highlight specific information within a document. U+2789 has no direct linguistic significance but can be useful for creating stylistic effects in digital text, especially when designing materials such as invitations, brochures, or advertisements.

How to type the symbol on Windows

Hold Alt and type 10121 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+2789. 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+2789 to binary: 00100111 10001001. 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:
