Step 1: Determine the UTF-8 encoding bit layout
The character ݥ has the Unicode code point U+0765. 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+0765 to binary:
00000111 01100101
. 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+0765, known as Arabic Letter Meem with Dot Above, is a significant character in the Arabic script system. As part of the Unicode Standard, it plays a crucial role in digital text representation for the Arabic language and related dialects. Typically used in text editing, typesetting, and digital communication, this character helps to maintain the cultural integrity and linguistic accuracy of written Arabic. In terms of its appearance, Arabic Letter Meem with Dot Above (U+0765) is an adapted form of the base character U+0645, Arabic Letter Meem. The dot above the meem signifies a long vowel or a change in pronunciation, similar to how accents are used in other languages like Spanish or French. This subtle distinction in written Arabic has profound implications for both spoken and written communication, highlighting the importance of accurate character representation in digital texts. In conclusion, U+0765 serves as a vital component of the Arabic script system, contributing to the preservation of cultural and linguistic contexts within digital text. Its role in accurately representing the spoken language ensures clear communication across various platforms, from traditional text editors to modern digital devices.
