Step 1: Determine the UTF-8 encoding bit layout
The character ⪾ has the Unicode code point U+2ABE. 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+2ABE to binary:
00101010 10111110
. 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 10111110

Description
The Unicode character U+2ABE, known as SUPERSET WITH DOT, is a specialized mathematical symbol used primarily in digital texts related to set theory, particularly in computer science and mathematics. This symbol represents the concept of a superset, which includes all elements of another set, and may also include additional elements. In typography, it is often employed alongside the SUBSET WITH DOT (U+2AC9) to illustrate relationships between sets. Despite its technical nature, this character holds importance in digital text as it enables precise communication of complex ideas within these specialized fields.
