Step 1: Determine the UTF-8 encoding bit layout
The character ⨔ has the Unicode code point U+2A14. 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+2A14 to binary:
00101010 00010100
. 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 10010100

Description
U+2A14, also known as LINE INTEGRATION NOT INCLUDING THE POLE, is a typographical character primarily used in the field of digital text and Unicode. This symbol represents an integrated line that does not include the pole, which implies a continuous horizontal line that has been seamlessly connected but omits the vertical component at one end. In digital typography, it serves as a visual element for integrating separate lines or sections within a larger text body without disrupting the flow of the composition. This character is often utilized in creating visually appealing layouts and designs in various digital applications such as websites, documents, and graphic designs. While its usage may not be widespread, it holds significance in specific contexts where precise control over typographical elements is necessary.
