About Latin Capital Letter P

The latin capital letter p is one of the original ASCII characters, meaning it has been part of computer text since the earliest teleprinters and terminals. Because it sits in the first 128 Unicode code points, it is guaranteed to render identically on virtually every device, operating system, font, and programming language ever built.

Unicode block: Basic Latin (U+0000–U+007F). The Basic Latin block is identical to 7-bit ASCII, the character-encoding standard published in 1963 and still the foundation every modern text encoding (including UTF-8) builds on.

At Unicode code point U+0050 (decimal 80), Latin Capital Letter P is the 48th of 84 characters cataloged in this category on How To Type Any Symbol. In terms of typing methods, it has a documented Windows Alt code, though no dedicated single-key Mac shortcut — Mac users generally rely on copy-paste for it. Regardless of platform, clicking the copy button above places the exact character on your clipboard, ready to paste into any application that accepts Unicode text.

💡 Good to know: On non-US keyboard layouts, this key may be relocated or require a modifier combination — the copy button above sidesteps that entirely.
