Description

The Unicode character U+0CE5 is a unique symbol with significant cultural and linguistic implications. It is primarily used in digital texts to represent the Cyrillic letter "Э" or "Es," which is part of the modern Russian alphabet, as well as several other Slavic languages that use the Cyrillic script. In these languages, it holds a crucial role in forming words and sentences, contributing to their phonetic and semantic structures. U+0CE5's importance extends beyond its linguistic function. It also serves as an essential character for text encoding, ensuring accurate representation of the intended content in digital environments. Its presence highlights the need for standardized encoding systems like Unicode, which facilitates seamless communication and exchange of information across diverse languages and cultures. The Cyrillic script, where U+0CE5 finds its place, has a rich history dating back to the 9th century. It emerged in Eastern Europe among the Slavic tribes and has since evolved into various adaptations, reflecting the cultural and linguistic diversities of different regions. Today, it remains an integral part of several languages, including Russian, Bulgarian, Serbian, and Ukrainian. In summary, U+0CE5 is a vital character in the Cyrillic script, contributing to the structure and meaning of words and sentences in multiple Slavic languages. Its role underscores the significance of Unicode and standardized encoding systems for facilitating global communication and preserving linguistic heritage.

How to type the symbol on Windows

Hold Alt and type 3301 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+0CE5. 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+0CE5 to binary: 00001100 11100101. 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 10110011 10100101
