Step 1: Determine the UTF-8 encoding bit layout
The character ⼳ has the Unicode code point U+2F33. 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+2F33 to binary:
00101111 00110011. 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 10111100 10110011

Description
The Unicode character U+2F33 is known as the "Kangxi Radical Short Thread." It plays a significant role in digital text, particularly within the context of Chinese characters and their decomposition. In traditional Chinese orthography, the Kangxi Dictionary serves as a primary reference for character analysis, and the Kangxi Radicals are a foundational aspect of this system. These radicals are simplified versions of characters that help to break down complex characters into more manageable components, facilitating their identification and understanding. The U+2F33 character represents the Short Thread radical, which is a common component in many Chinese characters. This character is typically used in digital text as part of a larger character decomposition process, aiding in the accurate representation of characters and enabling more efficient communication across languages.
