Step 1: Determine the UTF-8 encoding bit layout
The character ݲ has the Unicode code point U+0772. In UTF-8, it is encoded using 2 bytes because its codepoint is in the range of
0x0080
to0x07ff
.
Therefore we know that the UTF-8 encoding will be done over 11 bits within the final 16 bits and that it will have the format:110xxxxx 10xxxxxx
Where thex
are 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+0772 to binary:
00000111 01110010
. 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:

Description
U+0772, the Arabic letter Hah with Small Arabic Letter Tah Above, is a character in the Unicode Standard that represents a specific glyph used in digital text. In Arabic writing systems, it serves as an alphabetic character and plays a crucial role in the representation of language and communication. The character combines two distinct Arabic letters: Hah (H) and Small Tah (T), with the latter positioned above the former. This combination is used to create new sounds or meanings that are unique from the individual letters. The Arabic script, from which U+0772 originates, is one of the most widely used writing systems globally, particularly among Arabic-speaking populations. It is written from right to left and consists of 28 basic letters, each with a specific phonetic value. The combination of these letters allows for various permutations that can create different words, making the Arabic script versatile and expressive. U+0772's cultural significance lies in its representation within the Islamic world and among Arabic speakers. It is used in religious texts, such as the Quran, as well as in everyday communication, literature, and media across numerous Arabic-speaking countries. Its technical context is primarily related to digital text encoding, where Unicode provides a standardized method for representing text from different languages, including Arabic, accurately on various devices and platforms. This ensures consistent representation and readability of the U+0772 character, as well as other Unicode characters, in digital environments.
