Step 1: Determine the UTF-8 encoding bit layout
The character ⦼ has the Unicode code point U+29BC. 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+29BC to binary:
00101001 10111100. 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 10100110 10111100

Description
U+29BC 𝌼 is a typographic symbol known as the Circled Anticlockwise-Rotated Division Sign. It serves as a mathematical symbol in digital text for representing division. The character is part of the Unicode standard, which includes characters from multiple scripts and languages to enable global communication. In mathematical contexts, the Circled Anticlockwise-Rotated Division Sign (U+29BC) is used to represent division with a specific orientation. The symbol signifies that the operation is performed in an anticlockwise rotation. This can be particularly useful in situations where the order of operations or directionality plays a significant role, such as in geometry or trigonometry. The character may be used in digital text to convey information about specific mathematical concepts or problems requiring anticlockwise rotation during division operations. Although its usage is quite niche, it serves an essential purpose within the broader scope of mathematics and related fields.
