Step 1: Determine the UTF-8 encoding bit layout
The character ⾠ has the Unicode code point U+2FA0. 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+2FA0 to binary:
00101111 10100000. 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 10111110 10100000

Description
The character U+2FA0, KANGXI RADICAL MORNING, is a specialized typographic element within the Unicode Standard. It holds a unique role in digital text by serving as a building block for constructing Chinese characters using the Kangxi dictionary system, which is an essential tool for understanding and creating traditional Chinese characters. This radical represents the concept of morning or early hours, indicating its usage in linguistic contexts related to time or daily routines. In digital typography, U+2FA0 often acts as a prefix or suffix, combined with other radicals to form complete characters. Although it may appear infrequently in non-specialist texts, the KANGXI RADICAL MORNING holds significant cultural and linguistic importance within the field of Chinese studies and typography.
