Step 1: Determine the UTF-8 encoding bit layout
The character Ք has the Unicode code point U+0554. 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+0554 to binary:
00000101 01010100
. 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:
11010101 10010100

Description
U+0554 is the Unicode code point for ARMENIAN CAPITAL LETTER KEH, a character used in Armenian script. This alphabet, known as "Haykuhi," is written from left to right and is comprised of 36 letters, including uppercase and lowercase versions. The ARMENIAN CAPITAL LETTER KEH holds a significant role in digital text for the Armenian language, which is spoken by approximately 8 million people globally, primarily in Armenia and the surrounding region. It is an essential part of the Unicode Standard, a coding system that provides a unique number or "code point" to every character, symbol, or emoji used in written languages worldwide. In this context, ARMENIAN CAPITAL LETTER KEH helps preserve and promote Armenian culture, linguistics, and technical advancements in digital communications.
