Step 1: Determine the UTF-8 encoding bit layout
The character ⁵ has the Unicode code point U+2075. 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+2075 to binary:
00100000 01110101
. 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 10000001 10110101

Description
The Unicode character U+2075 represents the superscript numeral five (⁵). In digital text, this glyph is commonly employed to display numerical values in a raised format, often used for mathematical notation or scientific expressions. Although not unique to any particular language, its usage may be more prevalent in disciplines such as mathematics, physics, and chemistry, where superscripting is a standard convention. The U+2075 character plays a crucial role in preserving accuracy and clarity in various fields that require precise representation of numerical values and their respective power or exponentiation status.
