Step 1: Determine the UTF-8 encoding bit layout
The character ㆟ has the Unicode code point U+319F. In UTF-8, it is encoded using 3 bytes because its codepoint is in the range of
0x0800
to0xffff
.
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 thex
are the payload bits.UTF-8 Encoding bit layout by codepoint range Codepoint Range Bytes Bit pattern Payload length U+0000 - U+007F 1 0xxxxxxx 7 bits U+0080 - U+07FF 2 110xxxxx 10xxxxxx 11 bits U+0800 - U+FFFF 3 1110xxxx 10xxxxxx 10xxxxxx 16 bits U+10000 - U+10FFFF 4 11110xxx 10xxxxxx 10xxxxxx 10xxxxxx 21 bits Step 2: Obtain the payload bits:
Convert the hexadecimal code point U+319F to binary:
00110001 10011111
. Those are the payload bits.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:
11100011 10000110 10011111

Description
The Unicode character U+319F, also known as IDEOGRAPHIC ANNOTATION MAN MARK, serves a unique role in digital text by representing a human figure often used to annotate Chinese texts. It is primarily employed in the field of typography and linguistics where it assists readers in understanding textual content. This specific character holds cultural significance in East Asian countries such as China, Japan, and Korea, where it plays an integral part in traditional print culture and literature. The IDEOGRAPHIC ANNOTATION MAN MARK is not merely a decorative element; rather, it functions as a semantic marker denoting the presence of certain meanings or connotations within a given text.
