Step 1: Determine the UTF-8 encoding bit layout
The character ㇝ has the Unicode code point U+31DD. 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+31DD to binary:
00110001 11011101
. 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 10011101

Description
U+31DD, known as CJK Stroke TN, is a typographical character primarily used in digital text within the CJK Unified Ideographs range of the Unicode Standard. This character represents a vertical stroke that can be combined with other characters to create complex characters in Chinese, Japanese, and Korean (CJK) scripts. The stroke is essential in creating several hundred characters in these languages, and its usage significantly contributes to the unique aesthetics and readability of CJK scripts. CJK Stroke TN is often used as a building block for constructing more complex ideographs in digital text, where it can be combined with other Unicode characters or strokes. Although this character may not have direct cultural or linguistic significance on its own, it plays an important role in the overall structure and composition of CJK scripts, making it an indispensable element within the Unicode Standard for accurate digital representation of these languages.
