Description

The Unicode character U+1D63 represents the "LATIN SUBSCRIPT SMALL LETTER R". This character is often used in digital text to denote a subscripted version of the letter 'R'. Its role mainly lies within mathematical, chemical, and scientific contexts where it is employed to label elements, atoms, or variables with lowercase letters that appear below the baseline of other characters. Despite being less common than its uppercase counterpart, U+1D63 plays a vital part in precise communication and documentation within specialized fields such as chemistry, biology, and physics. It adheres to the Unicode standard, ensuring consistent representation across various platforms and devices.

How to type the symbol on Windows

Hold Alt and type 7523 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+1D63. 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+1D63 to binary: 00011101 01100011. 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 10100011
