Step 1: Determine the UTF-8 encoding bit layout
The character has the Unicode code point U+1BF4. 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+1BF4 to binary:
00011011 11110100
. 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 10110100

Description
The Unicode character U+1BF4 is a typographical symbol called "CHARACTER 1BF4." This particular character does not have a widely recognized role in digital text, as it is relatively rare and not commonly used for any specific purpose. It may be part of a specialized font or typeface, potentially serving a niche cultural, linguistic, or technical context. However, without further information on the specific use case, it is difficult to provide a detailed explanation of its function or importance. As an expert in Unicode and typography, it is crucial to emphasize that the primary focus should be on accuracy and understanding the unique attributes of each character within the vast Unicode system.
