Step 1: Determine the UTF-8 encoding bit layout
The character ⺣ has the Unicode code point U+2EA3. 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+2EA3 to binary:
00101110 10100011. 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 10100011

Description
The Unicode character U+2EA3, known as CJK RADICAL FIRE, is primarily used within the Chinese, Japanese, and Korean (CJK) script systems in digital text. Its primary role is to symbolize fire as a radical or component in these scripts. This character is not commonly seen outside of its native contexts due to its specific cultural and linguistic significance. In technical terms, U+2EA3 is part of the CJK Unified Ideographs Extension D, which contains supplementary characters to the original CJK Unified Ideographs block, allowing for a more comprehensive representation of these scripts in digital communication. The accurate use of this character reflects an understanding of and respect for the intricacies of the CJK script systems and their respective cultures.
