Step 1: Determine the UTF-8 encoding bit layout
The character ᝊ has the Unicode code point U+174A. 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+174A to binary:
00010111 01001010. 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 10011101 10001010

Description
U+174A, known as the BUHID LETTER BA, is a character primarily used in digital text systems to represent a specific letter within the Buhid script. The Buhid script is an abugida writing system predominantly employed for writing the Buhid language, which is spoken by various communities in the Philippines. It has its roots in the Tagalog script and was developed in response to the need for a native written form of the Buhid language. In digital text systems, U+174A plays a crucial role in accurately rendering and encoding the distinct phonetic and phonological properties of the Buhid Letter Ba. This character is vital in maintaining cultural, linguistic, and technical integrity when representing and processing texts in the Buhid script, particularly in digital communication and information exchange.
