Description

U+325E, the Circled Number Thirty Four, is a character primarily used in mathematical expressions and computer programming languages to represent the numeral '34' within an enclosed circle. This typographical symbol serves as a visual indicator for distinguishing the number from other similar characters or symbols in digital text, enhancing readability and reducing ambiguity. The Circled Number Thirty Four is particularly prevalent in engineering, physics, and programming contexts where mathematical notations are commonly employed. As an essential tool for maintaining clarity and precision in technical communication, this character contributes significantly to the accuracy of information exchange across diverse fields.

How to type the symbol on Windows

Hold Alt and type 12894 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+325E. 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+325E to binary: 00110010 01011110. 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:
    11100011 10001001 10011110
