Step 1: Determine the UTF-8 encoding bit layout
The character has the Unicode code point U+20FB. 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+20FB to binary:
00100000 11111011. 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:
11100010 10000011 10111011

Description
U+20FB is a Unicode character with the typographical representation of a curly double prime (‖) or a turnstile (|⁄|). It is primarily used in digital text to represent a logical implication operator, indicating that if the statement before the operator is true, then the statement after the operator must also be true. This character is often employed in formal logic, mathematics, and computer programming, where its precise semantic role makes it an important tool for accurate communication of complex ideas. U+20FB does not have any notable cultural or linguistic context, but its use in various fields emphasizes the importance of clear communication and precise expression, demonstrating that even in digital text, nuance matters.
