Step 1: Determine the UTF-8 encoding bit layout
The character ⊵ has the Unicode code point U+22B5. 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+22B5 to binary:
00100010 10110101. 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 10001010 10110101

Description
U+22B5, or the CONTAINS AS NORMAL SUBGROUP OR EQUAL TO symbol, is a mathematical symbol used predominantly in digital text. It is found within the Unicode character set, which serves as a universal system for representing text and symbols across various platforms and languages. This particular symbol is employed primarily in mathematical expressions, particularly within set theory and group theory. In these contexts, U+22B5 denotes that an element belongs to a specific subset or subgroup, and it also implies equality. For instance, if a statement reads "A ⊆ B," where A is a set and B is a superset of A, then replacing the symbol for subset inclusion (⊆) with U+22B5 would read "A contains as normal subgroup or equal to B." This use emphasizes the idea that the element of the set adheres to the rules and conditions of the specified group. Although not specifically tied to any cultural, linguistic, or technical context, U+22B5 remains a valuable tool in mathematical notation due to its concise representation and clear meaning. As such, it is essential for accurate communication among mathematicians, computer scientists, and other professionals who frequently work with these concepts.
