Description

The Unicode character U+0DEC represents the Sinhala lith digit six, a numeral used in the Sinhalese script. In digital text, it serves as a mathematical value representing the number six within numerical calculations or data sets. Its primary role is to enable accurate representation and conversion of Sinhalese numerals in text processing systems. The character's inclusion in Unicode promotes cultural inclusivity and ensures proper encoding for languages beyond the Latin alphabet, supporting linguistic diversity across digital platforms. The U+0DEC character is essential for maintaining accuracy in translations, data entry, and computer programming involving the Sinhalese language.

How to type the symbol on Windows

Hold Alt and type 3564 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+0DEC. 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+0DEC to binary: 00001101 11101100. 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 10110111 10101100
