Step 1: Determine the UTF-8 encoding bit layout
The character 〛 has the Unicode code point U+301B. 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+301B to binary:
00110000 00011011
. 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 10011011

Description
The Unicode character U+301B represents the Right White Square Bracket (冗). This symbol is primarily used in digital text to enclose or set off specific sections of content, similar to its left counterpart, U+301A. Its usage can be found in programming languages, markup languages like HTML and XML, and in various computer science contexts where it helps define syntax and formatting. Although not culturally significant, the right white square bracket plays an essential role in technical contexts as part of a pair with the left white square bracket to create enclosed segments for text or code. It adheres to Unicode standards, ensuring global compatibility and readability across diverse systems and platforms.
