Step 1: Determine the UTF-8 encoding bit layout
The character ⫒ has the Unicode code point U+2AD2. 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+2AD2 to binary:
00101010 11010010
. 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 10101011 10010010

Description
The Unicode character U+2AD2, known as CLOSED SUPERSET OR EQUAL TO (⊇), is a mathematical symbol used in digital text to represent a relationship between two sets. In this context, it denotes that the elements of one set are either all contained within another set or equal to it. This character plays a crucial role in digital communications and calculations, particularly in the fields of computer science, mathematics, and statistics. Its usage allows for clear and concise expression of complex relationships between sets, improving efficiency and accuracy in various technical and research applications. Despite its limited use outside these specific domains, U+2AD2 remains an essential character within the Unicode Standard, contributing to a more comprehensive understanding of set theory and other related mathematical concepts.
