Description

U+2B94 is a unique Unicode character that represents four corner arrows circling anticlockwise. This special glyph is used in digital text to depict movement or direction, often within the context of programming languages, game development, and interactive software design. Its distinct anticlockwise rotation sets it apart from other arrow characters, making it a valuable tool for conveying specific directions or actions in applications that require such indicators. Due to its unique design and functionality, U+2B94 has become an important symbol within the tech community and is widely recognized for its contributions to various industries.

How to type the symbol on Windows

Hold Alt and type 11156 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+2B94. 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+2B94 to binary: 00101011 10010100. 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 10101110 10010100
