Description

U+17FC is a character code in the Unicode standard that represents the character "LATIN CAPITAL LETTER WITH STROKE THROUGH THE MIDDLE". This character is used primarily for digital text formatting and typography purposes. It serves as an artistic or decorative representation of a capital letter, often employed in design work, logo creation, or other visual communication where the stroke through the middle of the letter adds emphasis or uniqueness. The character does not have any cultural, linguistic, or technical context outside of its usage as a specific typographical element. It is part of the "Latin Extended-D" block within Unicode, which includes various capital and lowercase letters with diacritics and other modifications. In summary, U+17FC is a versatile character that provides designers and creators with an option to use a capital letter with a unique visual feature for artistic or functional purposes in their digital text projects.

How to type the symbol on Windows

Hold Alt and type 6140 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+17FC. 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+17FC to binary: 00010111 11111100. 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 10011111 10111100
