Step 1: Determine the UTF-8 encoding bit layout
The character has the Unicode code point U+2434. 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+2434 to binary:
00100100 00110100. 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 10010000 10110100

Description
The Unicode character U+2434, also known as the "CHARACTER 2434," holds a vital role in the realm of digital text. This specific symbol is primarily utilized to represent a lowercase Greek letter pi (π) with a superscript numeral one (1). It's part of the Unicode block called "Mathematical Operators" and is often employed within mathematical equations or formulas, particularly when denoting Pi, the constant ratio of the circumference of any circle to its diameter. The CHARACTER 2434 plays a significant role in various fields, including mathematics, physics, engineering, and computer programming, where precise notation of numerical values is crucial.
