Step 1: Determine the UTF-8 encoding bit layout
The character ㈂ has the Unicode code point U+3202. 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+3202 to binary:
00110010 00000010
. 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 10001000 10000010

Description
U+3202 is a unique Unicode character called PARENTHESIZED HANGUL TIKEUT, which plays a significant role in digital text, particularly within the Korean language. This character is part of the Hangul system, which is the native script used in the Korean language. The tikeut (also spelled "dikeut") symbol is an essential component of the Hangul writing system, serving as a final consonant that is often combined with other characters to create compound letters. In digital text, U+3202 represents this specific consonant when used in combination with vowel signs, enabling accurate representation and communication in the Korean language. This character contributes to the rich linguistic and cultural heritage of Korea, enhancing the precision and expressiveness of written communication in this region.
