Description

The character U+1816, or Mongolian Digit Six, plays a significant role in the realm of digital text by serving as a numeral within the Mongolian script system. This unique symbol holds cultural importance in regions such as Mongolia and certain parts of Inner Mongolia, where it is commonly used to represent the numerical value of six in both written and printed formats. The Mongolian script itself has historical roots dating back over 800 years, originating from the Uighur script and evolving into a distinct writing system that utilizes its own set of characters. In digital text applications, U+1816 ensures accuracy and clarity for those working with languages that employ unique numeral systems, such as Mongolian, thereby contributing to the richness and diversity of global communication.

How to type the symbol on Windows

Hold Alt and type 6166 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+1816. 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+1816 to binary: 00011000 00010110. 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 10100000 10010110
