Description

The character U+1E57 represents the "Latin Small Letter P with Dot Above" in Unicode, which is a valuable system for encoding and displaying text across different platforms and languages. This specific character is primarily used in digital texts to represent a lowercase letter 'p' with an additional dot above it. Although it may not have a direct correspondence in the English alphabet, this character is commonly found in various languages and scripts where it serves as a distinct letter or symbol. The "Latin Small Letter P with Dot Above" can be seen in the Czech, Polish, and Slovak languages, among others, often representing a specific sound or phoneme that is not represented by the standard lowercase 'p'.

Overall, U+1E57 is an important symbol in digital text representation, contributing to the diversity of written expression across multiple languages and dialects.

How to type the symbol on Windows

Hold Alt and type 7767 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+1E57. 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+1E57 to binary: 00011110 01010111. 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:
    11100001 10111001 10010111
