Step 1: Determine the UTF-8 encoding bit layout
The character 〮 has the Unicode code point U+302E. 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+302E to binary:
00110000 00101110
. 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:
11100011 10000000 10101110

Description
The Unicode character U+302E, known as the HANGUL SINGLE DOT TONE MARK, is a crucial typographical element in the Korean language. It plays a pivotal role in digital text, specifically in the representation of vowel sounds and tone in written Korean. This character is often used in conjunction with other Hangul characters to create syllable blocks that form words and sentences. In this context, U+302E serves as a diacritical mark, denoting tone or a change in the pronunciation of the preceding base character. Its use is predominantly confined to the Korean language and its associated digital texts, reflecting its significant cultural, linguistic, and technical importance within this unique typographic system.
