Step 1: Determine the UTF-8 encoding bit layout
The character ⒅ has the Unicode code point U+2485. 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+2485 to binary:
00100100 10000101. 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 10000101

Description
The Unicode character U+2485 is known as "PARENTHESIZED NUMBER EIGHTEEN." This symbol plays a vital role in digital text by serving as an enclosed numeral, typically employed in mathematical expressions and equations to denote the number eighteen. It belongs to the Enclosed Number Forms category of characters, which also include U+2480 (PARENTHESIZED NUMBER ZERO) through U+2489 (PARENTHESIZED NUMBER NINE). Although primarily used in technical and mathematical contexts, this character can potentially contribute to improved readability and understanding of numerical information across various digital platforms. In terms of Unicode block, it is part of the Miscellaneous Technical category (U+2400-U+2461), which comprises a range of characters primarily intended for use in technical documents, such as engineering drawings, flowcharts, and programming code.
