Step 1: Determine the UTF-8 encoding bit layout
The character has the Unicode code point U+1B4D. In UTF-8, it is encoded using 3 bytes because its codepoint is in the range of
0x0800
to0xffff
.
Therefore we know that the UTF-8 encoding will be done over 16 bits within the final 24 bits and that it will have the format:1110xxxx 10xxxxxx 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+1B4D to binary:
00011011 01001101
. 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:
11100001 10101101 10001101

Description
U+1B4D is a rarely used Unicode character that holds the code point 1B4D. In the realm of digital text, this character is typically employed in specific technical applications, such as data communication protocols and control codes for text processing systems. Its primary role lies in representing non-printable characters or control sequences that govern text formatting and presentation. Though it does not play a prominent part in day-to-day text usage like other commonly used characters, U+1B4D holds significance within specialized contexts where precise control over text rendering is crucial.
