Step 1: Determine the UTF-8 encoding bit layout
The character ⷠ has the Unicode code point U+2DE0. 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+2DE0 to binary:
00101101 11100000. 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 10110111 10100000

Description
The Unicode character U+2DE0, known as the COMBINING CYRILLIC LETTER BE, is a typographical element primarily utilized in digital text for the purpose of modifying letters within the Cyrillic script. Its primary role lies in combining with other Cyrillic characters to form specific glyphs or ligatures that are not readily available as individual Unicode code points. The COMBINING CYRILLIC LETTER BE is often employed in various languages and scripts originating from Eastern Europe, particularly those using the Cyrillic script, such as Russian, Ukrainian, Bulgarian, and others. It contributes to the accurate representation of certain phonetic characteristics or regional dialects within these languages, enabling a more precise depiction of spoken sounds and enhancing readability for speakers of these linguistic communities.
