Description

The Unicode character U+2FDD is a less commonly known symbol, often referred to as the 'CHARACTER 2FDD'. It plays a significant role in digital text, particularly in certain programming languages and computer systems. Though it may not be widely recognized by most people due to its rarity in typical text usage, it holds importance in technical contexts such as Unicode-related discussions or specialized software development scenarios. Its specific function and applications are generally confined to these niche domains. Despite its limited usage, U+2FDD remains an integral part of the expansive Unicode system, demonstrating the vast diversity and inclusivity of digital text representation.

How to type the symbol on Windows

Hold Alt and type 12253 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+2FDD. 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+2FDD to binary: 00101111 11011101. 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 10111111 10011101
