Step 1: Determine the UTF-8 encoding bit layout
The character has the Unicode code point U+2E6D. 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+2E6D to binary:
00101110 01101101. 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 10111001 10101101

Description
The Unicode character U+2E6D is a specialized typographic symbol known as the "Presentation Form for Variants." This character serves an important role in digital text processing by enabling authors to present different versions of the same concept or idea, which are semantically equivalent but have distinct stylistic forms. In linguistic and cultural contexts, this can be particularly useful for presenting information that may be regionally, politically, or culturally sensitive while maintaining consistency in meaning across diverse audiences. U+2E6D is often employed in technical documentation, such as legal texts, to ensure uniformity of representation without implying a preference for one variant over another. Its use is highly dependent on the specific conventions and requirements of the intended audience or industry.
