Step 1: Determine the UTF-8 encoding bit layout
The character ⪼ has the Unicode code point U+2ABC. 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+2ABC to binary:
00101010 10111100
. 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 10101010 10111100

Description
The Unicode character U+2ABC, known as the DOUBLE SUCCEEDS (⇸), is a typographical symbol that holds significance in digital text. It is primarily utilized in programming languages, particularly in syntax highlighting and formatting, where it serves to visually distinguish double succession quantifiers from other symbols or operators. This character plays a crucial role in the representation of mathematical expressions and computational logic, enabling greater precision and readability in code. The DOUBLE SUCCEEDS symbol is typically represented as a combination of two arrows pointing in opposite directions, which visually signifies "two times" or "repeat twice" action in programming contexts. While not widely known outside the realm of computer science and technical writing, this character has a distinct purpose in its niche, contributing to the clarity and efficiency of digital text.
