Step 1: Determine the UTF-8 encoding bit layout
The character Լ has the Unicode code point U+053C. 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+053C to binary:
00000101 00111100. 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:
11010100 10111100

Description
U+053C is a typographical character in the Unicode Standard, representing the Armenian Capital Letter Liwn ( ARMENIAN CAPITAL LETTER LIWN ). This letter is predominantly used in digital text as part of the Armenian alphabet, which is written from left to right. The Armenian script is unique, having evolved from the Aramaic script and sharing similarities with Greek and Latin scripts. U+053C, or Զ, serves a crucial role within the Armenian language as it represents a specific phoneme in spoken Armenian. This letter does not have any additional cultural or linguistic significance beyond its function in the alphabet, but its presence is essential for accurate and meaningful communication in Armenian digital text.
