Description

The Unicode character U+1003 represents the Myanmar letter "Gha" (ဂ), which is an essential component of the Burmese script used in the Myanmar language. In digital text, this character plays a crucial role in accurately transcribing the Myanmar language for communication and information purposes. Myanmar, a Southeast Asian country with a rich cultural history, uses this unique alphabet system that is characterized by its angular forms and intricate design. As part of the Extended-B Burmese block of Unicode, U+1003 contributes to the comprehensive representation of the Myanmar language in digital environments. This letter's accurate use in text encoding is vital for maintaining linguistic integrity and preserving cultural identity in online and offline written communication.

How to type the symbol on Windows

Hold Alt and type 4099 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+1003. 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+1003 to binary: 00010000 00000011. 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 10000000 10000011
