Description

The Unicode character U+2ABF, known as "SUBSET WITH PLUS SIGN BELOW," is a typographic symbol used primarily in digital text for mathematical and scientific notation. This character serves a crucial role in expressing set theory, specifically subsets with an added plus sign below them. In the realm of mathematics, it is often employed to represent the concept of a subset that is the result of adding an additional element or elements from another set. It also finds application in linguistics and computer science for representing specific character relationships and interactions. This symbol ensures accurate communication of these concepts by providing a clear visual representation, thereby enhancing readability and understanding in technical contexts where precision matters most.

How to type the ⪿ symbol on Windows

Hold Alt and type 10943 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+2ABF. 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+2ABF to binary: 00101010 10111111. 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 10101010 10111111
