Step 1: Determine the UTF-8 encoding bit layout
The character ⊀ has the Unicode code point U+2280. 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+2280 to binary:
00100010 10000000. 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 10000000

Description
The Unicode character U+2280, known as "DOES NOT PRECEDE," is a symbol that denotes the relationship between two mathematical expressions in which the first expression does not precede the second. Typically used in digital text for mathematical notation and computer programming, this character helps clarify the order of operations in equations or algorithms. It is often utilized in computer algebra systems and mathematical software to ensure accurate calculations by explicitly defining the sequence of operations. The U+2280 symbol is not associated with any specific cultural, linguistic, or technical context, but rather serves as a universal tool for enhancing clarity and precision in mathematical expressions.
