Description

The Unicode character U+27CB represents the Mathematical Rising Diagonal (⊾) in digital text. This symbol is often used in mathematics to depict a rising diagonal line, which visually signifies an increasing function or trend. Its primary role lies within mathematical equations and notations, where it can be employed in various contexts such as calculus, algebra, and geometry. The Mathematical Rising Diagonal holds significance in these fields due to its ability to illustrate the relationship between variables and their rates of change. Although U+27CB is specific to mathematical notation, its usage transcends cultural and linguistic barriers, making it a valuable tool for clear and precise communication across diverse academic communities.

How to type the symbol on Windows

Hold Alt and type 10187 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+27CB. 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+27CB to binary: 00100111 11001011. 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 10011111 10001011
