Step 1: Determine the UTF-8 encoding bit layout
The character ㌍ has the Unicode code point U+330D. 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+330D to binary:
00110011 00001101. 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 10001100 10001101

Description
The Unicode character U+330D, known as the SQUARE KARORII (極角), is a specialized typographical symbol primarily utilized in Japanese digital text. In the context of typography, it represents an ancient Chinese unit of angle measurement, equivalent to 2.5 degrees. It holds cultural significance in East Asian countries, particularly Japan and China, due to its historical usage in mathematical and scientific texts, as well as in traditional calendars for astronomical purposes. The SQUARE KARORII is also significant in the study of ancient Chinese astronomy, where it was employed in calculations related to celestial bodies' movements. In digital text, this character is commonly used in modern contexts such as programming and computing, often as a marker for specific angles or degrees within algorithms or mathematical equations.
