Step 1: Determine the UTF-8 encoding bit layout
The character ⺪ has the Unicode code point U+2EAA. 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+2EAA to binary:
00101110 10101010. 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 10111010 10101010

Description
U+2EAA is a typographical character known as the CJK Radical Bolt of Cloth, which finds its origins in Chinese, Japanese, and Korean writing systems. This character serves as a radical in these systems, used to indicate specific meanings or semantic relationships within certain words and phrases. The term "CJK" refers to these three interrelated languages and scripts: Chinese (including both Simplified and Traditional Chinese), Japanese (Hiragana, Katakana, and Kanji), and Korean (Hangul). Although the character may not be widely used in everyday digital text, it holds significance for those studying or working with CJK languages due to its role in providing insight into the structure and etymology of these complex writing systems.
