Description

The character U+1D7C, also known as "LATIN SMALL LETTER IOTA WITH STROKE", is an important typographical element in the realm of digital text. It primarily serves to represent a variation of the lowercase Greek letter iota (ι) with a vertical stroke through it, which differentiates it from the regular Latin small letter "i". Its primary usage is seen in contexts where a distinct representation of this character is necessary, such as within typography or digital text applications. This character plays a crucial role in many languages and scripts around the world. In particular, its inclusion and accurate usage are essential in representing certain linguistic nuances accurately. The LATIN SMALL LETTER IOTA WITH STROKE is often utilized in academic texts, specifically within fields such as linguistics or classical studies, to provide a precise representation of specific words or phrases. Notably, this character's presence contributes significantly to the diversity and richness of digital text. Its existence helps maintain the integrity of languages and scripts that rely on it for accurate representation. This enhances the overall readability and comprehensibility of texts in these languages, thereby enriching the global digital landscape.

How to type the symbol on Windows

Hold Alt and type 7548 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+1D7C. 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+1D7C to binary: 00011101 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:
    11100001 10110101 10111100
