Step 1: Determine the UTF-8 encoding bit layout
The character ㍮ has the Unicode code point U+336E. 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+336E to binary:
00110011 01101110. 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 10001101 10101110

Description
The character U+336E, known as the IDEOGRAPHIC TELEGRAPH SYMBOL FOR HOUR TWENTY-TWO, plays a significant role in digital text, particularly in Japanese typography and telegraph systems. This symbol is part of the JIS X 0213:2000 standard and represents a specific time interval of 22 hours in the context of ICPC (International Code of Signs for Cables and Telegraphs) codes. The usage of this character can be traced back to the early days of telegraphy when time-based messages were crucial, as it provided a way to transmit precise time information over long distances. Although its use is relatively limited in modern digital communication, understanding and recognizing the IDEOGRAPHIC TELEGRAPH SYMBOL FOR HOUR TWENTY-TWO remains important for those studying historical communication methods or working with legacy systems that employ cable telegraphy codes.
