Step 1: Determine the UTF-8 encoding bit layout
The character ⾱ has the Unicode code point U+2FB1. 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+2FB1 to binary:
00101111 10110001. 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 10110001

Description
The character U+2FB1, also known as Kangxi Radical Tanned Leather, is a crucial component of the Chinese writing system. In digital text, it serves as a reference for understanding classical Chinese texts and their radicals. Its role in typography is significant due to its association with the Kangxi Dictionary, which organizes Chinese characters into 540 radicals or "Kangxi Radicals". Each radical represents a common element or component of multiple characters. U+2FB1, as Tanned Leather, may be a part of various compound characters and offers valuable insights into their meanings and pronunciations. This character's usage extends beyond its direct association with text and plays an essential role in linguistic research, historical context, and the preservation of ancient Chinese culture.
