Step 1: Determine the UTF-8 encoding bit layout
The character ㏝ has the Unicode code point U+33DD. 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+33DD to binary:
00110011 11011101. 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 10001111 10011101

Description
The Unicode character U+33DD, known as the SQUARE WB (Wave Dash), is primarily used in digital typography to represent a specific mathematical symbol. It serves as a visual indicator for denoting a horizontal shear transformation or wave dash in geometric constructions and computer graphics. This symbol is often employed in applications related to design, mathematics, engineering, and computer science fields. Although it may appear in various text formats, its usage is relatively niche due to its specialized function.
