Step 1: Determine the UTF-8 encoding bit layout
The character ᷬ has the Unicode code point U+1DEC. 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+1DEC to binary:
00011101 11101100. 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 10110111 10101100

Description
U+1DEC, also known as the COMBINING LATIN SMALL LETTER L WITH DOUBLE MIDDLE TILDE, is a Unicode character that serves a specific role in digital text. It is used in conjunction with the lowercase 'l' to create a unique typographic representation that combines the shape of the letter with two middle tildes. This combination of characters can be seen in various contexts, primarily within digital communications and documents where users may wish to express themselves or their ideas creatively or uniquely. Although its usage is relatively rare, it holds importance for those who appreciate typography or seek to add a distinctive touch to their text. The COMBINING LATIN SMALL LETTER L WITH DOUBLE MIDDLE TILDE is an example of how Unicode enables the representation of a wide range of characters and symbols from different cultures and languages, contributing to the diversity and richness of digital communication.
