Description

The Unicode character U+1A7D (CHARACTER 1A7D) is a special character used primarily for encoding specific data in digital text systems. It does not represent any particular symbol, letter, or number. Instead, its primary role lies in the realm of technical applications and communication protocols. One of its most common uses is within the context of the International Alphabet for Readwrite (IARW) system, where it serves as a non-spacing mark to control text flow direction and layout. This character allows for greater flexibility in digital text processing and provides developers with an essential tool for controlling the presentation of text in various applications. Although U+1A7D may not have a direct cultural or linguistic significance, it plays a crucial role in modern typography and digital communication by enabling precise control over text handling and ensuring compatibility across different devices and software platforms.

How to type the symbol on Windows

Hold Alt and type 6781 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+1A7D. 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+1A7D to binary: 00011010 01111101. 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:
    11100001 10101001 10111101
