Step 1: Determine the UTF-8 encoding bit layout
The character ࣎ has the Unicode code point U+08CE. 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+08CE to binary:
00001000 11001110. 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:
11100000 10100011 10001110

Description
The Unicode character U+08CE represents the Arabic Large Round Dot Above (ARABIC LARGE ROUND DOT ABOVE). This typographic symbol is primarily used in digital text, specifically within the Arabic script, to denote a diacritical mark. Its primary function is to provide additional information or modify the pronunciation of letters in the Arabic alphabet. The character is part of the Extended Arabic Presentation Forms-D set of Unicode characters, which includes various presentation forms for Arabic letters and diacritics. The U+08CE character holds significant importance in digital text as it helps maintain linguistic accuracy and facilitates the correct interpretation of written Arabic language.
