Step 1: Determine the UTF-8 encoding bit layout
The character ⋴ has the Unicode code point U+22F4. 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+22F4 to binary:
00100010 11110100
. 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 10110100

Description
The Unicode character U+22F4 is the Small Element of with Vertical Bar at End of Horizontal Stroke, also known as "⤫". This typographic symbol is primarily used in digital text to represent a specific mathematical or technical element within certain contexts. It serves as a visual indicator for elements that have a vertical bar at the end of a horizontal stroke, and it helps to distinguish between different elements with similar forms. However, this character is not commonly used outside of specialized fields such as mathematics or technical documentation. In these domains, U+22F4 plays an important role in ensuring clarity and accuracy in text representation. Its precise usage depends on the specific requirements of the document or application in which it is used. Overall, U+22F4 is a specialized character with limited cultural, linguistic, or technical context outside of niche areas, but it remains an essential tool for clear communication within those fields.
