Step 1: Determine the UTF-8 encoding bit layout
The character ⥴ has the Unicode code point U+2974. 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+2974 to binary:
00101001 01110100
. 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 10100101 10110100

Description
The Unicode character U+2974, known as the "RIGHTWARDS ARROW ABOVE TILDE OPERATOR," serves a specific role within digital text. It is primarily used in mathematics, computer science, and engineering to denote a rightward arrow with an inverted tilde above it. This character provides additional clarity and precision in various mathematical expressions and algorithms. In linguistic and cultural contexts, the RIGHTWARDS ARROW ABOVE TILDE OPERATOR may not have significant importance, but its use is vital in technical domains for accurate representation and communication of information.
