Step 1: Determine the UTF-8 encoding bit layout
The character ⍒ has the Unicode code point U+2352. 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+2352 to binary:
00100011 01010010. 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 10001101 10010010

Description
The character U+2352, also known as APL FUNCTIONAL SYMBOL DEL STILE, is a special symbol used primarily in the programming language APL (A Programming Language). This symbol serves as an operator that deletes specific elements of the array being operated upon. In digital text and coding, U+2352 is often used to manipulate arrays and perform mathematical operations. Although it may not be widely recognized outside of specialized programming communities, this character plays a crucial role in APL programming, where arrays are central to computations. It represents an important aspect of functional programming and data manipulation within the context of the APL language.
