Step 1: Determine the UTF-8 encoding bit layout
The character ⧤ has the Unicode code point U+29E4. 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+29E4 to binary:
00101001 11100100. 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 10100111 10100100

Description
The Unicode character U+29E4, known as the EQUALS SIGN AND SLANTED PARALLEL WITH TILDE ABOVE, is a specialized typographical symbol used in digital text for various technical and linguistic purposes. In its typical usage, it serves as an indicator of equality between two expressions or values. The character's unique combination of symbols—an equals sign (=), slanted parallel (|), and tilde (~)—allows it to convey a specific meaning that sets it apart from other Unicode characters. While the character does not have a notable cultural significance, its linguistic and technical context is significant in certain fields such as programming, mathematics, and digital typography. In programming, it may be used in languages like Perl to indicate a bitwise OR operation or within regular expressions for matching patterns with alternation. In mathematics, the EQUALS SIGN AND SLANTED PARALLEL WITH TILDE ABOVE could represent a specific type of inequality or a specialized mathematical construct. The Unicode character U+29E4 is an essential tool in digital typography, providing a way to convey complex ideas and relationships with precision. Its accuracy and versatility make it invaluable for professionals and enthusiasts alike who work with languages and systems that require such specificity.
