Step 1: Determine the UTF-8 encoding bit layout
The character Ꭳ has the Unicode code point U+13A3. 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+13A3 to binary:
00010011 10100011
. 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 10001110 10100011

Description
The Unicode character U+13A3 is known as the Cherokee Letter O (Ꭽ). It plays a crucial role in the Cherokee syllabary, an 86-character writing system developed by Sequoyah between 1809 and 1821. This syllabary allowed the Cherokee people to write their language for the first time, which was instrumental in preserving and disseminating Cherokee culture and literature. U+13A3 is a significant component of digital texts that aim to represent the Cherokee language accurately and faithfully. As part of the Unicode Standard, this character enables global communication by allowing the representation of diverse scripts and languages on modern computing systems.
