Step 1: Determine the UTF-8 encoding bit layout
The character has the Unicode code point U+2D7E. 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+2D7E to binary:
00101101 01111110
. 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:
11100010 10110101 10111110

Description
U+2D7E is a typographic character in the Unicode Standard, representing the "LATIN SMALL LETTER TURNED E." This character plays an essential role in digital text by providing an alternative representation of the letter 't' in certain typographical contexts. Its design is based on historical scripts and typefaces, where the lowercase 't' has a distinctive turned shape. The U+2D7E character can be found in various digital platforms, such as websites, documents, and software applications, particularly those involving artistic or creative typesetting. Although it is not commonly used in everyday text, it serves as an important tool for designers and typographers who seek to express unique styles and visual elements in their work.
