Step 1: Determine the UTF-8 encoding bit layout
The character ٴ has the Unicode code point U+0674. 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+0674 to binary:
00000110 01110100. 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 10110100

Description
U+0674, Arabic Letter High Hamza, is a crucial character in the Arabic script that plays an essential role in digital text. This character represents a diacritical mark, specifically the high hamza, which is placed above the alphabet to signify the glottal sound in Arabic pronunciation. The high hamza indicates a short glottal stop at the beginning of words or syllables and is frequently used in both formal and informal written texts. In digital communication and text processing systems, U+0674 adheres to Unicode standards for accurate representation and interpretation across various devices and platforms, ensuring smooth information exchange among users with Arabic language proficiency. Its importance lies not only in its linguistic value but also as a crucial component of the broader Arabic typography system, contributing to the richness and expressiveness of the written form of the Arabic language.
