Description

The Unicode character U+2AD3, known as SUBSET ABOVE SUPERSET, is a typographical symbol primarily used in digital texts for mathematical and scientific notation. Its primary role is to represent the concept of a subset within a superset, visually indicating the relationship between two sets in set theory. This character can be employed in various contexts such as computer programming, mathematics, and statistics where precise representation of relationships and dependencies are essential. In these fields, U+2AD3 helps convey complex ideas with clarity and precision, improving communication and reducing the potential for misinterpretation. Although not as widely recognized as other Unicode characters, U+2AD3 plays a crucial role in specific domains where mathematical and technical accuracy is paramount.

How to type the symbol on Windows

Hold Alt and type 10963 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+2AD3. 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+2AD3 to binary: 00101010 11010011. 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:
    11100010 10101011 10010011
