Step 1: Determine the UTF-8 encoding bit layout
The character ⤫ has the Unicode code point U+292B. 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+292B to binary:
00101001 00101011
. 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 10101011

Description
U+292B is a Unicode character that represents the RISING DIAGONAL CROSSING FALLING DIAGONAL symbol. This typographical element is primarily used in digital text to visually convey a diagonal crossing of two other diagonal lines, one rising and the other falling. It serves as a useful tool for creating technical illustrations or diagrams, where it helps to depict intersections or crossings of slanted lines. While this symbol may not have significant cultural, linguistic, or technical context in most domains, it can be a valuable addition to various fields such as engineering, architecture, and mathematics. The RISING DIAGONAL CROSSING FALLING DIAGONAL character is an essential component for precise and effective communication of spatial relationships and connections in text formats that support Unicode characters.
