Step 1: Determine the UTF-8 encoding bit layout
The character ⯽ has the Unicode code point U+2BFD. 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+2BFD to binary:
00101011 11111101. 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 10101111 10111101

Description
The Unicode character U+2BFD, known as the PASSED SYMBOL, is a typographical mark typically employed in digital texts for indicating passing or approval. It has an essential role in various fields such as testing and examination systems, where it signifies that a certain task or question was successfully completed by the test-taker. The PASSED SYMBOL is also used in software programming to denote successful execution of a particular function or module. Despite its relatively niche application, this character plays a significant part in conveying important information about the status of tasks or operations. Its usage ensures clarity and precision in communication within technical and linguistic contexts where pass/fail evaluations are crucial.
