Step 1: Determine the UTF-8 encoding bit layout
The character ᯂ has the Unicode code point U+1BC2. In UTF-8, it is encoded using 3 bytes because its codepoint is in the range of
0x0800to0xffff.
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 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+1BC2 to binary:
00011011 11000010. 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 10101111 10000010

Description
The Unicode character U+1BC2 represents the letter "HA" from the Batak script. This script is primarily used for the written form of the Batak languages, which are spoken by the Batak people in Indonesia, particularly in North Sumatra and West Sumatra provinces. The Batak alphabet, along with this specific character, plays a crucial role in preserving and promoting the linguistic heritage and cultural identity of the Batak communities. In digital text, U+1BC2 is commonly used to accurately represent and transcribe written materials in these languages on websites, documents, and applications that support Unicode text. The use of such characters helps ensure the authenticity and accessibility of information for speakers of Batak languages while also contributing to linguistic diversity online.
