Step 1: Determine the UTF-8 encoding bit layout
The character ㇙ has the Unicode code point U+31D9. 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+31D9 to binary:
00110001 11011001. 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:
11100011 10000111 10011001

Description
The Unicode character U+31D9, known as CJK STROKE ST, primarily serves a formatting purpose in digital text. It is predominantly used in Chinese, Japanese, and Korean (CJK) writing systems, although it is not specific to any single language or system within this group. The CJK STROKE ST character helps to visually separate sections of text, particularly when using the traditional writing style, where a stroke is an essential component of each character. It assists in maintaining readability and clarity while formatting text in digital documents. In its role as a separator or divider, it contributes to a well-structured, easy-to-read layout in CJK texts. Despite its limited usage in other writing systems outside the CJK group, the character remains an important part of digital typography within these languages, ensuring precise formatting and legibility for readers.
