Description

U+086C is a special character in the Unicode standard, representing the symbol "CHARACTER 086C". This character is not widely used in digital text due to its lack of association with any specific language or cultural context. However, it may have technical significance within certain programming environments or software applications where unique identifiers are necessary for specific functions or processes. Its primary role lies in its ability to serve as a unique character code, allowing developers and users to reference this particular symbol without ambiguity. As a result, the usage of U+086C is relatively niche and specialized, primarily found within technical documentation or coding scenarios.

How to type the symbol on Windows

Hold Alt and type 2156 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+086C. 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+086C to binary: 00001000 01101100. 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 10100001 10101100
