Step 1: Determine the UTF-8 encoding bit layout
The character 〩 has the Unicode code point U+3029. 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+3029 to binary:
00110000 00101001. 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 10000000 10101001

Description
The Unicode character U+3029 is known as the "Hangzhou Numeral Nine," which represents the numeral nine in the Hangzhou numeral system. This unique numeral system originated from ancient China, specifically in the city of Hangzhou, and it predates the widely used Arabic numerals we are familiar with today. The Hangzhou numeral system is a base-ten positional numeral system, and each symbol in this numeral system corresponds to a specific value depending on its position within a number sequence. U+3029 is utilized primarily for digital text purposes, such as encoding text files, websites, and applications that require specialized character sets. In the context of typography, U+3029 plays an essential role in preserving and promoting the cultural heritage of ancient Chinese numeral systems, as well as aiding researchers and linguists studying historical texts and artifacts.
