Step 1: Determine the UTF-8 encoding bit layout
The character ⎭ has the Unicode code point U+23AD. 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+23AD to binary:
00100011 10101101. 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 10001110 10101101

Description
The Unicode character U+23AD, known as the RIGHT CURLY BRACKET LOWER HOOK, is a unique typographical element primarily employed in digital text formatting. Its primary role lies within its usage in programming languages, where it serves as a closing bracket to denote the end of a specific block of code. In this context, the character helps maintain the integrity and clarity of coding syntax by indicating where one section of instructions ends and another begins. In terms of cultural, linguistic, or technical significance, U+23AD does not have any notable connotations or associations in these domains. It is purely a typographical tool without deeper symbolic meanings or historical contexts, making its function strictly limited to the realm of text formatting and coding. As such, the RIGHT CURLY BRACKET LOWER HOOK plays an essential role in maintaining the readability and functionality of digital texts, especially within programming languages and other technical domains that rely on specific formatting rules for proper interpretation and execution.
