Step 1: Determine the UTF-8 encoding bit layout
The character 〵 has the Unicode code point U+3035. 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+3035 to binary:
00110000 00110101
. 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 10110101

Description
The Unicode character U+3035, known as the VERTICAL KANA REPEAT MARK LOWER HALF, plays a significant role in digital text, particularly within the context of the Japanese writing system. It is commonly used to indicate a repetition or extension of a vertical kana character in typography and typesetting. This character has its roots deeply embedded in traditional Japanese culture and is indispensable for accurately representing the language's unique script. The VERTICAL KANA REPEAT MARK LOWER HALF contributes to the precision and clarity of digital text, making it an essential component in the accurate representation of the Japanese language through Unicode.
