Description

The Unicode character U+22EA represents the Not Equal To symbol (≠). In digital text, it is commonly used in mathematical expressions and equations to denote inequality between two values. This symbol plays a crucial role in various fields such as mathematics, programming, and logic, where it helps differentiate equal from unequal values or conditions. The Not Equal To symbol has its origins in the Latin alphabet, with its earliest form resembling a reversed 'V' or 'U'. Although it may appear similar to the inequality symbols (≤, ≥), U+22EA specifically denotes that the left-hand value is not equal to the right-hand value. Its accurate usage is essential in avoiding confusion and ensuring clarity in digital communication across various industries and disciplines.

How to type the symbol on Windows

Hold Alt and type 8938 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+22EA. 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+22EA to binary: 00100010 11101010. 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:
    11100010 10001011 10101010
