Step 1: Determine the UTF-8 encoding bit layout
The character ⒍ has the Unicode code point U+248D. 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+248D to binary:
00100100 10001101. 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 10010010 10001101

Description
The Unicode character U+248D, also known as "DIGIT SIX FULL STOP," holds a unique role in digital typography. This character serves as an enhanced version of the standard numeral '6', incorporating a horizontal line above it to denote a distinct separation or distinction in text. Typically used in accounting and finance applications, U+248D helps differentiate between numerals when clarity is crucial, such as in financial figures or mathematical equations. While this character may not be widely recognized due to its specialized use, it plays an essential role in maintaining accuracy and reducing ambiguity in certain digital text contexts.
