Step 1: Determine the UTF-8 encoding bit layout
The character ᷻ has the Unicode code point U+1DFB. 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+1DFB to binary:
00011101 11111011. 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 10110111 10111011

Description
The Unicode character U+1DFB, known as the COMBINING DELETION MARK, is a typographical symbol primarily used to indicate that text has been deleted in digital documents. Its role lies in the field of word processing and text editing, where it helps users track changes or revisions by marking the content as removed without actually deleting it from the original text. This character holds significance in digital communication, particularly for proofreaders, editors, and authors who wish to maintain a clear record of their modifications. While this character does not have a direct cultural, linguistic, or technical context, its usage ensures accurate and efficient text management across various platforms and devices. By employing the COMBINING DELETION MARK, users can effectively collaborate on documents while maintaining transparency about changes made, thus promoting clear communication and avoiding misinterpretations.
