Step 1: Determine the UTF-8 encoding bit layout
The character ⫘ has the Unicode code point U+2AD8. 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+2AD8 to binary:
00101010 11011000
. 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 10011000

Description
The Unicode character U+2AD8, commonly referred to as SUPERSET BESIDE AND JOINED BY DASH WITH SUBSET, plays a significant role in digital text by serving as a symbol for set relationships. It is used predominantly in mathematical and logical contexts, where it indicates that the superset is on one side of the dash, and the subset is on the other. This character provides a clear visual representation of these hierarchical relationships between sets in a concise manner, enhancing readability and understanding for users engaged with digital text pertaining to mathematics, computer science, or data analysis.
