Step 1: Determine the UTF-8 encoding bit layout
The character ⪴ has the Unicode code point U+2AB4. 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+2AB4 to binary:
00101010 10110100. 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 10110100

Description
The Unicode character U+2AB4, known as the SUCCEEDS ABOVE EQUALS SIGN, serves a unique purpose in digital text by representing an inequality relationship. Specifically, it denotes that a quantity on one side of the operator is greater than another quantity above it, when used in mathematical expressions. Its primary application lies within the realm of computer science, particularly in the context of programming languages and algorithms where such mathematical relationships are often employed. While not as widely recognized or utilized as other mathematical symbols like the equals sign or greater-than symbol, the SUCCEEDS ABOVE EQUALS SIGN holds a significant role in precise calculations and problem-solving within technical fields.
