Step 1: Determine the UTF-8 encoding bit layout
The character ⡈ has the Unicode code point U+2848. 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+2848 to binary:
00101000 01001000. 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 10001000

Description
U+2848 Braille Pattern Dots-47 is a character from the Unicode standard used in digital text representation of the Braille system. This particular character corresponds to the third row of dots in Braille's six-dot cell pattern, representing the numeral "7" in Braille. In this 3x6 grid pattern, the first and second dots are raised for a tactile reading experience, signifying the number seven in the Braille alphabet. This Unicode character plays a crucial role in enabling accessibility by converting numerical values into a format that can be read by those with visual impairments who use Braille as their primary means of communication and information acquisition. It is essential to maintain accuracy and consistency in digital text representation for users relying on Braille translations, ensuring the effectiveness of this versatile tactile writing system.
