Step 1: Determine the UTF-8 encoding bit layout
The character ᫉ has the Unicode code point U+1AC9. 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+1AC9 to binary:
00011010 11001001. 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:
11100001 10101011 10001001

Description
The Unicode character U+1AC9, also known as the COMBINING DOUBLE PLUS SIGN ABOVE, primarily serves a role in digital text as an accent or diacritic mark. In typography, it is used to place a doubled plus sign (+) above another character or letter, often used in mathematical expressions or equations. This character can be combined with other letters or symbols to indicate specific meanings or relationships within the context of its usage. It does not have any notable cultural, linguistic, or technical context outside of its role as an accent or diacritic mark in digital text. Accuracy is paramount when using this character, as its incorrect application can lead to misinterpretation or errors in the intended mathematical expression or equation.
