Step 1: Determine the UTF-8 encoding bit layout
The character ͢ has the Unicode code point U+0362. In UTF-8, it is encoded using 2 bytes because its codepoint is in the range of
0x0080to0x07ff.
Therefore we know that the UTF-8 encoding will be done over 11 bits within the final 16 bits and that it will have the format:110xxxxx 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+0362 to binary:
00000011 01100010. 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:

Description
The Unicode character U+0362, COMBINING DOUBLE RIGHTWARDS ARROW BELOW, is a specialized typographic element that holds a significant role in digital text. It's primarily used to combine with other characters or symbols, creating a unique visual effect where it appears as an arrow pointing double rightwards below the character it is combined with. This character offers a dynamic aspect to written content, often employed in linguistic contexts requiring a demonstration of directional flow or motion. Its technical application is most notably seen in software like text editors and word processors, where users can manipulate its placement and combine it with other characters for enhanced expressiveness and visual interest. While its usage may not be as widespread as other Unicode characters, the COMBINING DOUBLE RIGHTWARDS ARROW BELOW demonstrates the versatility of Unicode in encoding a wide range of characters and symbols that cater to different linguistic and cultural needs.
