Step 1: Determine the UTF-8 encoding bit layout
The character ⹚ has the Unicode code point U+2E5A. 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+2E5A to binary:
00101110 01011010. 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 10011010

Description
U+2E5A is a typographical character known as the Top Half Right Parenthesis. This Unicode character plays a significant role in digital text, particularly when used in mathematical expressions and computational documents. Its primary usage is to denote the top half of an open right parenthesis, providing an essential element for formulating complex equations and expressions that require visual distinction between different levels or hierarchies within their structures. While it does not possess a specific cultural or linguistic context, its usage is vital in technical fields such as computer programming, mathematics, and various scientific disciplines, where precise representation of nested parentheses is necessary for accurate data interpretation and communication.
