Step 1: Determine the UTF-8 encoding bit layout
The character ⹜ has the Unicode code point U+2E5C. 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+2E5C to binary:
00101110 01011100. 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 10111001 10011100

Description
The Unicode character U+2E5C, known as the Bottom Half Right Parenthesis (⧶), plays a vital role in digital typography and is predominantly used in specialized programming languages and mathematical expressions. This unique character serves as a right parenthesis that is visually divided into two halves, with the bottom half being smaller than the top half. This distinct appearance allows for clearer delineation of nested structures within code or equations, thereby enhancing readability and reducing the risk of misinterpretation. Although not widely used in everyday digital communication, the Bottom Half Right Parenthesis holds significance in niche contexts such as the LaTeX typesetting system and programming languages like Python, where it is employed for creating complex expressions and syntax. Its presence within these systems contributes to a higher level of accuracy and precision, ensuring that developers and mathematicians can convey their ideas effectively and error-free.
