Step 1: Determine the UTF-8 encoding bit layout
The character ⧧ has the Unicode code point U+29E7. 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+29E7 to binary:
00101001 11100111
. 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 10100111

Description
The Unicode character U+29E7 is known as "THERMODYNAMIC." It holds a significant position in the field of digital typography and symbolic representation. This character finds extensive use in scientific and technical texts, specifically within thermodynamics, where it serves as a shorthand for the term 'thermodynamic.' U+29E7 is part of a set of characters known as the ISO 80000 series, which are primarily used to represent symbols in physics and chemistry. It represents the concept of thermodynamics, a branch of physics that studies the relationships between heat, work, and energy, which are integral to various scientific disciplines. The usage of this character enables precise communication in these fields, minimizing potential for confusion or misinterpretation that may arise from textual descriptions alone.
