Step 1: Determine the UTF-8 encoding bit layout
The character has the Unicode code point U+245B. 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+245B to binary:
00100100 01011011. 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 10010001 10011011

Description
The Unicode character U+245B is a symbol used primarily in digital text for mathematical expressions and scientific notation. Its typical usage is to denote an up arrow, representing an increase in value or a movement towards a higher point. This symbol is widely used in programming languages, equations, and other technical documents where the direction of an action or change in magnitude needs to be represented clearly and concisely. The character does not have any specific cultural, linguistic, or technical context, as its usage is universal across various fields and disciplines that require a visual representation of an upward movement or increase. Its primary role remains in providing clarity and precision within the contexts where it is applied, ensuring accurate communication of mathematical, scientific, or programming concepts.
