Step 1: Determine the UTF-8 encoding bit layout
The character ≵ has the Unicode code point U+2275. In UTF-8, it is encoded using 3 bytes because its codepoint is in the range of
0x0800
to0xffff
.
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 thex
are 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+2275 to binary:
00100010 01110101
. 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 10001001 10110101
NEITHER GREATER-THAN NOR EQUIVALENT TO·U+2275

Description
The Unicode character U+2275, known as the "NEITHER GREATER-THAN NOR EQUIVALENT TO" symbol, serves a crucial role in mathematical expressions and logical statements in digital text. This symbol is typically employed to indicate that neither of two compared values is greater than or equivalent to the other. In terms of its cultural, linguistic, or technical context, U+2275 finds its primary application within computer science, engineering, and mathematical notations, particularly when dealing with relational operators in programming languages and logical expressions in formal proofs. As an essential part of the Unicode Standard, this character ensures precise communication of logical relationships in various fields that rely on clear, unambiguous language.
