Step 1: Determine the UTF-8 encoding bit layout
The character ⽒ has the Unicode code point U+2F52. 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+2F52 to binary:
00101111 01010010. 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 10111101 10010010

Description
The Unicode character U+2F52, known as KANGXI RADICAL CLAN, holds a significant position in the world of digital typography and character encoding. It is part of the Kangxi radical, which is a Chinese classification system for characters based on their basic structural elements. This system originated during the Kangxi era (1662-1722) of the Qing Dynasty and is still widely used in contemporary Chinese dictionaries and character databases. In digital text, U+2F52 serves as a reference for sorting and retrieval purposes, assisting in identifying characters with similar structural features and facilitating their organization within text-editing tools. This character contributes to the accurate representation of Chinese text on various digital platforms, thereby playing an essential role in preserving cultural heritage and linguistic identity.
