Step 1: Determine the UTF-8 encoding bit layout
The character ⠤ has the Unicode code point U+2824. 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+2824 to binary:
00101000 00100100. 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 10100000 10100100

Description
U+2824 (BRAILLE PATTERN DOTS-36) is a character within the Unicode Standard that represents a single dot in the Braille pattern for the number 6, one of the six dots used in standard Grade 1 Braille. The Braille script is a tactile writing system used by individuals with visual impairments, enabling them to read and write through touch. In digital text, U+2824 serves as a symbol for the presence of a dot within a Braille cell and is often utilized in applications related to accessibility and assistive technology. It plays an important role in the production of Braille transcriptions of written material, including literature, technical documents, and educational resources, ensuring that content is accessible to a wide audience regardless of visual abilities. The character contributes to promoting inclusivity and fostering effective communication in diverse linguistic contexts.
