Description

U+1C4A is a unique Unicode character with significant importance in digital typography. As a code point from the 'Miscellaneous Technical' block (U+1C00 - U+1FFF), it serves as a specific identifier for various technical symbols and glyphs used across different platforms, programming languages, and software applications. The character is often employed in technical documentation, source codes, and digital communications to convey precise instructions or denote specific functions. Although this character might not hold cultural or linguistic significance, its usage in the technical realm ensures its vital role within modern information systems and digital communication.

How to type the symbol on Windows

Hold Alt and type 7242 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+1C4A. 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+1C4A to binary: 00011100 01001010. 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 10110001 10001010
