Step 1: Determine the UTF-8 encoding bit layout
The character ㋫ has the Unicode code point U+32EB. In UTF-8, it is encoded using 3 bytes because its codepoint is in the range of
0x0800
to0xffff
.
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 thex
are 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+32EB to binary:
00110010 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:
11100011 10001011 10101011

Description
The Unicode character U+32EB, known as the "CIRCLED KATAKANA HU," is a crucial element in digital text representation, specifically within the Japanese script. As part of the Katakana script, this symbol plays an essential role in transcribing and translating the Japanese language accurately in digital platforms. The Katakana script primarily consists of phonetic characters that represent syllables rather than whole words. The Unicode character U+32EB is utilized to depict a specific sound, which is "Hu." This unique symbol has significant cultural and linguistic importance as it maintains the integrity of spoken and written Japanese communication, ensuring clarity and precision in digital text representation.
