Description

The Unicode character U+29E1, INCREASES AS, is a specialized symbol used primarily in mathematical notation and scientific equations. It represents an increase in a certain value or variable, signifying that the subsequent value or variable should be considered as a change from the previous value. Although not widely recognized, this character plays a crucial role in advanced calculations and complex problem-solving scenarios. U+29E1 is typically employed within technical, scientific, and engineering fields, where precise notation is essential for clarity and accuracy. Its usage is relatively niche, making it less common in everyday digital text compared to other Unicode characters.

How to type the symbol on Windows

Hold Alt and type 10721 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+29E1. 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+29E1 to binary: 00101001 11100001. 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 10100111 10100001
