Step 1: Determine the UTF-8 encoding bit layout
The character has the Unicode code point U+2D7D. 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+2D7D to binary:
00101101 01111101. 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 10111101

Description
U+2D7D is a Unicode character code that represents the "RAISED MUSICAL NOTE" symbol. This typographical element is frequently used in digital text to signify a musical note positioned above the stem. It is primarily employed in musical notation software and applications, enabling users to transcribe musical pieces with increased accuracy and precision. The raised note symbol can also be found in various forms of print and digital media, including scores, sheet music, and educational resources on music theory. While it holds cultural significance within the realm of music, its usage extends across different linguistic contexts as well, due to the global adoption of Unicode for digital text representation.
