Step 1: Determine the UTF-8 encoding bit layout
The character 〗 has the Unicode code point U+3017. 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+3017 to binary:
00110000 00010111. 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 10010111

Description
The Unicode character U+3017, known as the RIGHT WHITE LENTICULAR BRACKET, is a lesser-known symbol primarily used in digital text for its specific typographic characteristics. This unique symbol has a lenticular shape and serves as a right white variant of the regular white square bracket. In digital text, it can be employed to delimit or enclose segments of text, similar to the usage of standard square brackets. However, due to its rarity in everyday use, the RIGHT WHITE LENTICULAR BRACKET is not widely recognized and may not have significant cultural, linguistic, or technical contexts. Nonetheless, it remains an intriguing example of the vast diversity within Unicode character sets, demonstrating the versatility and flexibility of digital typography in representing a wide range of symbols and characters for various uses.
