Description

U+0CFA is a Unicode character code point representing the Cyrillic capital letter "Ў" (U+0428). This letter is part of the Cyrillic script, which is used in several languages, including Russian, Ukrainian, Bulgarian, Serbian, and Macedonian. The character Ў (uppercase У) plays a significant role in these languages by serving as a distinct letter with its own unique phonetic value, unlike some other Cyrillic characters that can be used interchangeably to represent similar sounds. In digital text, U+0CFA is used for accurate representation of the Cyrillic capital letter "Ў" across various platforms and applications, facilitating global communication and preserving linguistic integrity. It is important to note that this character may not be widely used in all Cyrillic-based languages as it is specific to certain dialects or regional variations. Cyrillic script has a rich history, dating back to the 9th century when it was developed from the Greek alphabet for the Slavic languages. Over time, the Cyrillic script has been adapted and expanded to include additional characters for various linguistic needs. The character U+0CFA exemplifies the ongoing evolution of written communication across different cultures, languages, and regions.

How to type the symbol on Windows

Hold Alt and type 3322 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+0CFA. 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+0CFA to binary: 00001100 11111010. 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 10111010
