Step 1: Determine the UTF-8 encoding bit layout
The character ≣ has the Unicode code point U+2263. 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+2263 to binary:
00100010 01100011. 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 10100011

Description
The Unicode character U+2263, also known as "STRICTLY EQUIVALENT TO", is a mathematical symbol used primarily in digital text for its specific role in comparing two expressions. It has its roots in the field of symbolic logic, where it demonstrates that two expressions are equivalent. This character plays an essential part in formalizing logic statements and proofs within mathematics, computer science, and artificial intelligence. Its significance transcends cultural and linguistic boundaries as it is universally understood by those familiar with mathematical symbols. Due to its specificity, the U+2263 symbol is not often used outside of these specialized fields, but when it is employed, it contributes to clearer and more accurate communication in complex topics.
