Step 1: Determine the UTF-8 encoding bit layout
The character բ has the Unicode code point U+0562. 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+0562 to binary:
00000101 01100010. 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+0562 is the Unicode representation for the Armenian Small Letter Ben (՚), a character from the Armenian alphabet. In digital text, this glyph plays a crucial role in accurately representing Armenian language content, enabling clear communication and preservation of linguistic integrity. The Armenian alphabet, which includes 36 letters, is an abugida writing system that has been used since the 5th century. This script was introduced by Mesrop Mashtots, a scholar and cleric credited with standardizing the Armenian language, fostering its development and cultural expression. U+0562 contributes to this rich linguistic heritage, facilitating the digital representation of the unique sounds and phonetics of the Armenian language. As a result, U+0562 remains an essential element in modern computing systems for accurate and accessible Armenian text processing and presentation.
