Step 1: Determine the UTF-8 encoding bit layout
The character ⻂ has the Unicode code point U+2EC2. 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+2EC2 to binary:
00101110 11000010
. 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 10000010

Description
U+2EC2 is a character in the Unicode Standard, specifically classified under the CJK (Chinese, Japanese, and Korean) Radicals category. Its primary role in digital text is to represent the concept of "clothes" or garments in Chinese, Japanese, and Korean languages, which often use logograms instead of alphabets for writing. In these scripts, radicals serve as components or building blocks that help convey meaning in written characters. The CJK Radical Clothes character (U+2EC2) is an essential element in many East Asian logographs and helps indicate the semantic aspect related to clothing and garments. This character holds significant cultural, linguistic, and technical importance as it facilitates accurate communication of ideas and concepts within these language systems.
