Step 1: Determine the UTF-8 encoding bit layout
The character ⨈ has the Unicode code point U+2A08. 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+2A08 to binary:
00101010 00001000. 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 10101000 10001000

Description
The Unicode character U+2A08, known as the "TWO LOGICAL OR OPERATOR", is a symbol often used in computer programming and digital text. It represents the binary logical operator called "OR", which is used to combine two or more boolean expressions into a single expression. In technical contexts, it follows the rules of Boolean logic where a value of true is treated as 1 and false as 0. When this operator is utilized in an equation, if at least one of the operands evaluates to true, the entire expression evaluates to true. While its usage is primarily within programming languages and digital text, the TWO LOGICAL OR OPERATOR holds significance due to its role in shaping the structure and function of various software applications. It forms a fundamental part of coding and logical operations, demonstrating the essential nature of its use in diverse technical fields.
