Step 1: Determine the UTF-8 encoding bit layout
The character ⓫ has the Unicode code point U+24EB. 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+24EB to binary:
00100100 11101011. 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 10010011 10101011

Description
The Unicode character U+24EB, known as NEGATIVE CIRCLED NUMBER ELEVEN, is a digit from the Alphabetic Presentation Forms range of characters. It plays a significant role in digital text by enabling the representation of numerical values with a visual style reminiscent of traditional writing systems. This character can be used to present negative numbers as if they were written using circled numerals, adding clarity and aesthetic appeal to mathematical expressions and scientific notations. Although it does not have any direct linguistic significance, its use in digital text helps maintain consistency and legibility across various typographical contexts and cultures. As a result, U+24EB is an essential tool for precise communication in fields such as computer programming, scientific research, and data visualization.
