Description

U+18F6 is a specialized typographical character within the Unicode system, used primarily for representing specific symbols or glyphs in digital text. This character is not commonly found in everyday written communication but holds significant importance in certain cultural, linguistic, or technical contexts. The use of U+18F6 often depends on the specific requirements of a particular document, software, or application that employs it. It is essential to note that this character might not be universally recognized or supported across all devices and platforms due to its specialized nature. Despite this, U+18F6 remains an important aspect of typography and digital text representation for specific use cases.

How to type the symbol on Windows

Hold Alt and type 6390 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+18F6. 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+18F6 to binary: 00011000 11110110. 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 10100011 10110110
