Step 1: Determine the UTF-8 encoding bit layout
The character ㎥ has the Unicode code point U+33A5. In UTF-8, it is encoded using 3 bytes because its codepoint is in the range of
0x0800
to0xffff
.
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 thex
are 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+33A5 to binary:
00110011 10100101
. 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 10001110 10100101

Description
The Unicode character U+33A5, known as the SQUARE M CUBED, primarily serves a technical role in digital text. It is used to represent the cubed version of the mathematical operation for the square root symbol (√). In typographical terms, this character is utilized to provide an accurate and consistent representation of the cube of the square root function across various digital platforms and programming languages. Although it has a specific technical usage, its presence in cultural, linguistic contexts remains limited due to its mathematical nature. Nonetheless, it plays a crucial role in fields such as computer science, engineering, and physics where precise mathematical notation is essential for accurate communication of ideas.
