Step 1: Determine the UTF-8 encoding bit layout
The character has the Unicode code point U+2D79. 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+2D79 to binary:
00101101 01111001. 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 10110101 10111001

Description
The Unicode character U+2D79, also known as the character ⌣, is a part of the Miscellaneous Technical (UTF-8) category in the Unicode Standard. This symbol is typically used to represent a vertical bar or line in digital text, often employed for section division or separating elements within the content. Although it doesn't have any specific cultural, linguistic, or technical context associated with its usage, this character can be seen in various technical documentation, computer programming, and online applications where vertical lines are required to separate different sections or elements of information. It is important to note that U+2D79 is not widely used, but it still serves its purpose when needed in specific scenarios.
