Description

U+2AB6 is a rarely used Unicode character known as "SUCCEEDS ABOVE NOT EQUAL TO." It is an algebraic symbol that represents the strict inequality operator in mathematics. Specifically, it indicates that one value succeeds another but is not equal to it. This character is primarily utilized in digital text for expressing mathematical or logical relationships where the order of the values matters significantly. Despite its obscurity and limited use, U+2AB6 plays a crucial role in certain fields such as computer programming, algorithms, and scientific notations.

How to type the symbol on Windows

Hold Alt and type 10934 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+2AB6. 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+2AB6 to binary: 00101010 10110110. 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 10110110
