Step 1: Determine the UTF-8 encoding bit layout
The character 』 has the Unicode code point U+300F. 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+300F to binary:
00110000 00001111
. 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 10001111

Description
The Unicode character U+300F, also known as the RIGHT WHITE CORNER BRACKET, plays a significant role in digital text as an essential part of various programming languages and markup formats. It is commonly used to denote the beginning or end of a code block, comments, or other text sections within source codes. The character holds special significance in languages like JavaScript, Perl, and HTML, where it serves to demarcate important syntactical elements. U+300F finds its application in various programming contexts due to its clear distinction from similar symbols such as parentheses or brackets, making code more readable and maintainable. Despite its technical nature, the RIGHT WHITE CORNER BRACKET has no specific cultural, linguistic, or regional significance and is a universal symbol used across different programming languages.
