Step 1: Determine the UTF-8 encoding bit layout
The character ⫭ has the Unicode code point U+2AED. 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+2AED to binary:
00101010 11101101
. 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 10101101

Description
The Unicode character U+2AED, known as the Reversed Double Stroke Not Sign (⸗), is an obscure typographical symbol with limited usage in digital text. It serves primarily as a logical operator within computer programming and mathematics, representing a negation or reverse operation. This symbol is reversed compared to the standard double stroke not sign (⊥), which makes it distinct in its role as a visual indicator of a different logical function. Though rarely seen outside of these specific contexts, the Reversed Double Stroke Not Sign has significance in technical and mathematical applications, contributing to precise and clear expression of algorithms and equations.
