Step 1: Determine the UTF-8 encoding bit layout
The character has the Unicode code point U+2EFD. 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+2EFD to binary:
00101110 11111101. 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 10111011 10111101

Description
U+2EFD is a character within the Unicode standard that represents the "MATHEMATICAL EXPONENT" (or "EXPONENT NOTATION"). This symbol is typically used in digital text for mathematical expressions, particularly when representing powers or exponents in equations. Its usage is primarily found in scientific and technical contexts where the accurate representation of complex numbers, calculations, and expressions are crucial. U+2EFD has no specific cultural or linguistic association but holds significant importance in various fields such as computer science, mathematics, and engineering due to its role in precise mathematical notation. Its presence in Unicode ensures that digital text remains consistent and accurately represented across different platforms and languages.
