Description

U+2C01 is a typographic character known as the Glagolitic Capital Letter Buky, which holds significant importance in digital text representation. This character is part of the Unicode Standard, an essential tool for encoding and displaying text across different languages and platforms globally. The Glagolitic script originated in the First Bulgarian Empire during the 9th century, serving as a means to write Old Church Slavonic, a liturgical language of the Eastern Orthodox Church. U+2C01 is one of the 48 characters in the Glagolitic block (U+2C00-U+2C5F) and is often used for digital typesetting or transcription of Glagolitic texts, reflecting its cultural and historical significance. In modern use, the character primarily serves to maintain linguistic accuracy, support language preservation efforts, and facilitate research on the Glagolitic script's history and development.

How to type the symbol on Windows

Hold Alt and type 11265 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+2C01. 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+2C01 to binary: 00101100 00000001. 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:
    11100010 10110000 10000001
