Step 1: Determine the UTF-8 encoding bit layout
The character Ᏸ has the Unicode code point U+13F0. 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+13F0 to binary:
00010011 11110000
. 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 10001111 10110000

Description
U+13F0, known as CHEROKEE LETTER YE, is a significant character in the Cherokee language and Unicode system. The Cherokee script, which includes this letter, was developed by Sequoyah in the early 19th century to write the Cherokee language. This unique script comprises 86 letters, including CHEROKEE LETTER YE (U+13F0), which plays a vital role in digital text representation for the Cherokee language. The use of this character allows users to accurately transcribe and display texts in Cherokee, thus preserving and promoting cultural heritage. In terms of technical context, CHEROKEE LETTER YE is part of the Cherokee block, which was added to Unicode version 3.1 in June 2000 to support the Cherokee script. Today, its usage is primarily found in digital communication and documentation involving the Cherokee language and culture.
