Frequently asked questions
What is a Unicode code point?
It is the unique number assigned to each character, written U+ followed by hexadecimal. “A” is U+0041 (65 in decimal), “€” is U+20AC (8364). The tool shows this number for each character entered.
What do the UTF-8 bytes represent?
UTF-8 encodes a character in 1 to 4 bytes. “A” fits in 1 byte (41), “€” in 3 (E2 82 AC), an emoji in 4. It is the most common encoding on the web.
Are emojis handled?
Yes. The tool iterates by code point (not code unit), so “👍” counts as a single character: U+1F44D, decimal 128077, UTF-8 F0 9F 91 8D.
What is the HTML entity for?
The numeric entity (e.g. € for €) lets you display a character on a web page even if the file encoding is problematic. The tool provides it for each character.
