Step 1: Determine the UTF-8 encoding bit layout
The character ⿑ has the Unicode code point U+2FD1. 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+2FD1 to binary:
00101111 11010001
. 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 10111111 10010001

Description
The Unicode character U+2FD1 represents the Kangxi Radical Even (甲彗). It is a key element in the Chinese character classification system, specifically within the Kangxi Dictionary. In digital text, it serves as a reference marker for grouping characters with similar components or meanings. The Kangxi Radical Even is an important aspect of traditional Chinese typography and its use in the Kangxi Dictionary has had significant influence on the study and understanding of the Chinese language. By categorizing characters based on their radicals, it allows for easier classification, lookup, and analysis, thus enhancing the efficiency and accuracy of digital text processing in Chinese.
