Step 1: Determine the UTF-8 encoding bit layout
The character ⡪ has the Unicode code point U+286A. 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+286A to binary:
00101000 01101010. 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 10100001 10101010

Description
The character U+286A, "BRAILLE PATTERNS DOTS-2467," plays a crucial role in digital text by representing the Braille character for the number 7 in Braille Patterns Dots-2467. Braille is a tactile writing system used primarily by people who are visually impaired, allowing them to read and write using touch instead of sight. This system consists of six dots arranged in a rectangular grid of two columns and three rows, which can be combined to represent letters, numbers, and symbols. In digital text, U+286A allows for the accurate translation and representation of the Braille number 7 across different platforms and devices, ensuring that visually impaired users have access to information in their preferred format.
