Description

The Unicode character U+2E29, known as the Right Double Parenthesis, plays a pivotal role in digital text, particularly in programming languages and computer algebra systems. It serves as an indicator for right parentheses pairs or right-angled brackets. In these contexts, it is often employed to encase expressions and ensure logical consistency within code syntax, while facilitating the calculation of compound mathematical equations. Despite its lesser-known status in comparison to other Unicode characters, U+2E29's significance cannot be overstated as it ensures programmatic accuracy and coherence in digital text across various programming languages.

How to type the symbol on Windows

Hold Alt and type 11817 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+2E29. 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+2E29 to binary: 00101110 00101001. 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 10111000 10101001
