Step 1: Determine the UTF-8 encoding bit layout
The character ⨐ has the Unicode code point U+2A10. 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+2A10 to binary:
00101010 00010000. 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 10101000 10010000

Description
The Unicode character U+2A10 represents the "Circulation Function" in typography and digital text. Its primary purpose is to indicate the circulation mode of a document or publication. This mode can be either "restricted," meaning that access to the content is limited, or "open," indicating unrestricted access. Typically used in the publishing industry, the Circulation Function character aids in the organization and cataloging of documents within digital repositories and libraries. Its significance lies in its ability to communicate the level of accessibility and distribution permissions associated with any given piece of content. The usage of this character is vital in ensuring proper circulation management and adherence to copyright laws and publishing conventions.
