Step 1: Determine the UTF-8 encoding bit layout
The character ⻱ has the Unicode code point U+2EF1. 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+2EF1 to binary:
00101110 11110001. 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 10110001

Description
The Unicode character U+2EF1 is the CJK Radical Turtle. It plays a significant role in digital text by serving as a graphical component for Chinese characters. In traditional Chinese writing, radicals are groupings of strokes that combine to form more complex characters, and they help in character classification. The Turtle radical represents a specific combination of strokes often found in characters related to water or growth. This radical is used across various scripts in the CJK Unified Ideographs block of the Unicode Standard, which encompasses Chinese, Japanese, and Korean writing systems. By incorporating the Turtle radical into digital text, developers can maintain the historical and cultural significance of traditional characters while enabling compatibility with modern technology.
