Step 1: Determine the UTF-8 encoding bit layout
The character ᫋ has the Unicode code point U+1ACB. 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+1ACB to binary:
00011010 11001011
. 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 10101011 10001011

Description
U+1ACB, also known as the COMBINING TRIPLE ACUTE ACCENT, is a Unicode character that serves a specific purpose in digital text. Typically used in typography, it is employed to combine with other characters and accent them with three acute accents. This special character allows for greater flexibility in language adaptation and diacritic representation, particularly within linguistic or cultural contexts where multiple accents are needed. While its usage may be less common in general text, the COMBINING TRIPLE ACUTE ACCENT plays a crucial role in digital text production, enabling accurate representation of certain languages and dialects that require unique diacritical marks for proper expression.
