Step 1: Determine the UTF-8 encoding bit layout
The character ⸋ has the Unicode code point U+2E0B. 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+2E0B to binary:
00101110 00001011. 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 10111000 10001011

Description
The Unicode character U+2E0B, known as the RAISED SQUARE, is a typographical symbol with unique functionalities in digital text. In its typical usage, this character serves to denote a raised or elevated position of an object or concept, often used in technical and mathematical contexts to illustrate concepts of height or elevation. It is particularly valuable in scenarios where the use of standard letters might not be precise enough to convey the intended meaning. In terms of cultural, linguistic, or technical significance, U+2E0B RAISED SQUARE does not hold a specific role that pertains to any particular culture or language. Its application is largely universal, providing an additional tool for expressing ideas and information in digital text across various contexts and industries. This includes usage in fields such as computer science, mathematics, engineering, and technical writing, where the ability to precisely convey complex concepts is essential. While it may not be a universally recognized symbol, U+2E0B RAISED SQUARE fills an important niche by providing a clear visual representation of an elevated or raised state. Its inclusion in Unicode underscores its potential utility and relevance in digital text, enabling authors and programmers to express nuanced concepts with precision.
