Description

U+0B7C is a character in the Unicode standard, representing the Cyrillic Capital Letter Shwa Sign (Ш) in its uppercase form. This character is typically used in digital text to represent the uppercase version of the letter "Ш" within the Cyrillic script. In terms of cultural and linguistic context, the Cyrillic script is primarily used for writing languages such as Russian, Bulgarian, Serbian, and Ukrainian, among others. The use of U+0B7C in digital text is crucial for accurate representation of these languages in various electronic media formats, such as websites, documents, and software applications. Its presence ensures proper communication and understanding among speakers of these languages who utilize digital platforms for reading, writing, or exchanging information. Overall, U+0B7C plays a vital role in preserving linguistic diversity and facilitating global communication by enabling accurate representation of the Cyrillic script in digital text environments.

How to type the symbol on Windows

Hold Alt and type 2940 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+0B7C. 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+0B7C to binary: 00001011 01111100. 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:
    11100000 10101101 10111100
