Step 1: Determine the UTF-8 encoding bit layout
The character ⋢ has the Unicode code point U+22E2. 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+22E2 to binary:
00100010 11100010
. 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 10100010

Description
U+22E2, the "Not Square Image of or Equal To" character, is a symbol used to represent an inequality in mathematical expressions. It serves as a comparative operator in digital text, particularly within formal mathematical notations. The usage of this character is primarily in technical and scientific contexts, where it plays a crucial role in indicating that one mathematical expression is neither equal to nor is the square image of another. This symbol is valuable for its precision and clarity in conveying complex relationships between variables or expressions, ensuring accurate communication in fields such as computer science, engineering, physics, and mathematics.
