Step 1: Determine the UTF-8 encoding bit layout
The character ⊇ has the Unicode code point U+2287. 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+2287 to binary:
00100010 10000111
. 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 10001010 10000111

Description
The Unicode character U+2287, known as the "Subset of or Equal to" symbol (⊆), plays a crucial role in digital text, specifically in set theory and computer science. It is often used to denote that one set contains all elements from another set or is equal to it. This symbol is particularly important in algorithms, programming languages, and mathematical expressions where the relationships between different sets need to be clearly defined. While not culturally significant, its use in various technical fields emphasizes its importance in maintaining precision and avoiding ambiguity in communication.
