The latin small letter k 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.
