Description

U+0CE9, also known as KANNADA DIGIT THREE, is a character within the Unicode Standard that represents the numeral '3' in the Kannada script. In digital text, it serves a vital role by enabling accurate and culturally appropriate representation of numbers in documents, websites, and software applications involving the Kannada language. Kannada is one of the major Dravidian languages, primarily spoken in the Indian state of Karnataka and also by Kannadigas worldwide. The Kannada script, which dates back to the 9th century, has a rich history and its digit characters are indispensable for maintaining textual integrity in digital platforms. U+0CE9 is an essential component of this script, facilitating precise communication in various domains such as literature, education, and technology. As part of the Unicode Standard, U+0CE9 ensures global interoperability and harmonious exchange of information across diverse linguistic and cultural boundaries.

How to type the symbol on Windows

Hold Alt and type 3305 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+0CE9. 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+0CE9 to binary: 00001100 11101001. 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 10101001
