Step 1: Determine the UTF-8 encoding bit layout
The character ⺐ has the Unicode code point U+2E90. 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+2E90 to binary:
00101110 10010000. 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 10010000

Description
The Unicode character U+2E90 represents the CJK Radical Lame Three. This symbol is commonly used in Chinese characters to denote the meaning of "three" when combined with other radicals. In digital text, it serves as a component for constructing more complex characters, specifically those that involve a numerical or quantity aspect. The CJK Radical Lame Three holds cultural significance in the traditional writing system of China, Japan, and Korea, where it has been used for centuries to aid in the understanding and construction of characters. While this symbol might not be widely recognized by non-expert audiences, its importance lies in the foundational role it plays in these ancient writing systems. Overall, U+2E90 is a crucial element in the rich typographical history and linguistic development of East Asian languages.
