Step 1: Determine the UTF-8 encoding bit layout
The character ⤗ has the Unicode code point U+2917. 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+2917 to binary:
00101001 00010111. 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 10100100 10010111

Description
The Unicode character U+2917, known as the "RIGHTWARDS TWO-HEADED ARROW WITH TAIL WITH VERTICAL STROKE", is a unique symbol used in digital text for representing specific mathematical or technical concepts. This particular character is predominantly utilized in mathematics and engineering to depict bidirectional arrows with an additional vertical stroke, symbolizing the interaction between two processes or systems where both are influenced by each other, but also there is an independent factor (the vertical stroke) that influences or impacts them independently. The use of this character is mainly in mathematical equations, programming, and engineering diagrams, where precise communication of complex relationships and interactions is crucial. In these fields, U+2917 brings clarity to the flow or movement of information or processes, making it a critical tool for conveying intricate ideas accurately. It plays an important role in the visual representation of algorithms and data flows in computer science, and in physics, where it can depict forces acting on an object from multiple directions. While U+2917 is not associated with any specific cultural or linguistic contexts, its use underscores the universal nature of mathematics and engineering - fields that rely on clear, precise communication across various languages and cultures. Its inclusion in Unicode demonstrates the commitment to inclusivity and accessibility in digital text for these essential domains of knowledge.
