Step 1: Determine the UTF-8 encoding bit layout
The character ⺱ has the Unicode code point U+2EB1. 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+2EB1 to binary:
00101110 10110001
. 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 10110001

Description
The Unicode character U+2EB1, known as CJK RADICAL NET ONE, is a specialized typographic element commonly used in Chinese, Japanese, and Korean (CJK) digital texts. Its primary role lies within these languages' complex writing systems, where it serves as a radical or a semantic-lexical unit that helps form characters. The CJK RADICAL NET ONE character represents the meaning of "net" or "fishing net," and is used to provide context and meaning when combined with other characters in various combinations. In these writing systems, it contributes significantly to the creation of distinct characters that carry cultural, linguistic, and historical significance. The CJK RADICAL NET ONE is an essential component for accurate and effective communication in these languages, showcasing the intricate relationship between radicals and their associated meanings in typography and language expression.
