Step 1: Determine the UTF-8 encoding bit layout
The character ℋ has the Unicode code point U+210B. 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+210B to binary:
00100001 00001011. 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 10000100 10001011

Description
U+210B, also known as SCRIPT CAPITAL H, is a typographical character within the Unicode Standard that represents an uppercase, cursive form of the letter "H". This character is often used in digital text for typographic purposes or to create a distinct visual style in design. Its usage can be seen in calligraphy, where it helps replicate the flow and elegance typically associated with handwritten script. SCRIPT CAPITAL H is particularly useful in creating visual contrast within designs or documents, as its cursive form sets it apart from the standard, block-style uppercase "H". It does not have any linguistic or cultural significance on its own but can be used to represent other characters when combined with other Unicode characters through a process called "ligature", where two or more characters are joined together to create a new glyph. In this way, SCRIPT CAPITAL H plays an important role in digital typography and design, contributing to the richness and diversity of text presentation.
