Step 1: Determine the UTF-8 encoding bit layout
The character ⌝ has the Unicode code point U+231D. 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+231D to binary:
00100011 00011101
. 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 10001100 10011101

Description
The Unicode character U+231D, known as the "TOP RIGHT CORNER" (╱), is a symbol used in digital text to indicate the top right corner of a rectangular area or region. It is often utilized in mathematical expressions and technical documentation to signify orientation, positioning, and alignment. While not widely prevalent in everyday language use, it serves an essential purpose within specialized contexts such as computer programming, graphic design, and geometric representation. The character is part of the Miscellaneous Technical block within Unicode, which contains a diverse range of symbols and characters for technical uses.
