Description

The Unicode character U+0AD8 holds a significant place in the world of digital typography. It represents the character 'ZAZ', which is a letter from the Mro culture found in Niger, Nigeria. This alphabet is unique as it consists of 14 letters and 5 digits, showing the rich linguistic heritage of the region. U+0AD8 falls under the category of "Latin Extended Additional" Unicode block, which was created to add new characters and extend the Latin-based writing systems. In digital text, this character would be used for accurate transcription of words or phrases in the Mro language, allowing for a more inclusive digital landscape.

How to type the symbol on Windows

Hold Alt and type 2776 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+0AD8. 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+0AD8 to binary: 00001010 11011000. 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:
    11100000 10101011 10011000
