Step 1: Determine the UTF-8 encoding bit layout
The character has the Unicode code point U+18AE. 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+18AE to binary:
00011000 10101110. 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:
11100001 10100010 10101110

Description
U+18AE is a typographical character in the Unicode Standard, primarily utilized in digital text for its distinct symbolic representation. This specific character holds significance within linguistic and cultural contexts, as it is often employed to signify an individual character or element that may not be natively supported by certain writing systems. In technical applications, U+18AE serves as a means of extending the capability of digital text encoding, enabling users to represent a broader range of characters and symbols in their content. The character's role within digital text highlights its importance in facilitating accurate communication and expression across diverse languages and cultures, while also underscoring the value of Unicode in promoting universal accessibility and interoperability in modern computing systems.
