Description

The Unicode character U+10FB is known as the Georgian Paragraph Separator. This character plays a crucial role in digital text, specifically in the Georgian script, an alphabet used for the Kartvelian languages, such as Meadow Languages and Svan, spoken mainly in Georgia and parts of Russia. It serves as a paragraph separator in digital texts written in these scripts, helping to distinguish between separate paragraphs and enabling smoother reading and easier navigation through long texts. Although its use is specific to the Georgian script, it demonstrates the versatility and inclusivity of the Unicode system in accommodating diverse writing systems from around the world.

How to type the symbol on Windows

Hold Alt and type 4347 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+10FB. 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+10FB to binary: 00010000 11111011. 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 10000011 10111011
