Step 1: Determine the UTF-8 encoding bit layout
The character ⫬ has the Unicode code point U+2AEC. 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+2AEC to binary:
00101010 11101100. 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 10101100

Description
The Unicode character U+2AEC, known as the DOUBLE STROKE NOT SIGN (⁜), primarily serves a role in mathematical expressions and formal language in digital text. It is used to negate compound expressions, where an entire mathematical expression or operation is negated together instead of individual terms or elements within the expression. This can be particularly useful in logic, set theory, and certain branches of mathematics for clearer representation and communication of complex ideas. Despite its relatively niche usage, this character plays a crucial role in maintaining accuracy and preventing misinterpretation in specialized digital text contexts where it is employed.
