Step 1: Determine the UTF-8 encoding bit layout
The character ⮓ has the Unicode code point U+2B93. 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+2B93 to binary:
00101011 10010011
. 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 10101110 10010011

Description
The Unicode character U+2B93, known as the NEWLINE RIGHT, plays a crucial role in digital typography by representing an end-of-line symbol in right-to-left (RTL) scripts. It is particularly significant in languages that use right-to-left text direction, such as Hebrew, Arabic, and certain other Middle Eastern and Asian languages. The NEWLINE RIGHT character enables the seamless transition from one line of text to another while maintaining the correct text directionality. This is especially important for users who rely on RTL scripts in their daily communication and content creation. The accurate and efficient use of U+2B93 helps preserve the readability, comprehension, and overall user experience of digital texts in languages that require right-to-left formatting.
