Step 1: Determine the UTF-8 encoding bit layout
The character ٞ has the Unicode code point U+065E. In UTF-8, it is encoded using 2 bytes because its codepoint is in the range of
0x0080to0x07ff.
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 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+065E to binary:
00000110 01011110. 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:
11011001 10011110

Description
U+065E Arabic FatĤah with Two Dots is a unique character in the Arabic script, playing an essential role in representing Arabic language in digital text. It's characterized by two dots placed above the main character, which indicates that the previous consonant should be pronounced with a Fatha (a vowel sound). This character serves as a phonetic indicator and helps maintain accuracy in pronunciation when reading or writing Arabic. U+065E is widely used in digital communications, documentations, and publications, ensuring the fidelity of the written language across various platforms and devices. Furthermore, it demonstrates the rich cultural and linguistic diversity inherent in the Arabic script. The use of such technical characters reflects the importance of Unicode in enabling accurate representation and understanding of different languages on the internet and digital mediums.
