Step 1: Determine the UTF-8 encoding bit layout
The character ⢝ has the Unicode code point U+289D. In UTF-8, it is encoded using 3 bytes because its codepoint is in the range of
0x0800to0xffff.
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 thexare 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+289D to binary:
00101000 10011101. 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:
11100010 10100010 10011101

Description
U+289D Braille Pattern Dots-13458 is a character in the Unicode Standard, specifically designed to represent a unique configuration of dots within a standardized 6x6 grid used in digital text communication for visually impaired individuals. This specific Braille pattern is not commonly found in everyday usage, as it represents an uncommon character or symbol from an auxiliary alphabet. It may be employed in specialized contexts, such as scientific notation, music notation, or other fields requiring unique symbols beyond the standard Braille system. However, its primary role remains within digital text representation for individuals who have adapted to read using braille through tactile means, enabling them to access written information independently and with increased ease.
