Step 1: Determine the UTF-8 encoding bit layout
The character ⫆ has the Unicode code point U+2AC6. 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+2AC6 to binary:
00101010 11000110. 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 10000110

Description
The Unicode character U+2AC6, also known as the Superset of Above Equals Sign, is a typographic symbol that holds significant importance in digital text, particularly in mathematics and computer science. Its primary role is to represent the concept of a superset, which is a set containing all elements of another set along with additional elements. The Superset of Above Equals Sign is commonly used to denote this relationship between sets in mathematical expressions and algorithms. Despite its relative obscurity compared to other common Unicode symbols, it serves as a vital tool for clearly conveying the idea of superset relationships within digital text, thereby enhancing communication and reducing potential misunderstandings among professionals in fields such as mathematics, computer science, and software development.
