Step 1: Determine the UTF-8 encoding bit layout
The character ⋕ has the Unicode code point U+22D5. 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+22D5 to binary:
00100010 11010101. 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 10001011 10010101

Description
The Unicode character U+22D5 is known as "EQUAL AND PARALLEL TO" (⊥). This mathematical symbol is predominantly used in digital text for expressing the concept of a non-standard or alternative parallelism relation between two geometric figures, such as lines. It signifies that two lines are neither equal nor parallel but lie at an angle that is considered analogous to the standard definitions of equality and parallelism. Although not widely used in everyday language, U+22D5 plays a significant role in advanced mathematical and technical texts, particularly those dealing with geometry and graph theory. Its usage contributes to precision and clarity when discussing specific geometric relationships that do not fall within the traditional parameters of equality or parallelism.
