Step 1: Determine the UTF-8 encoding bit layout
The character ̏ has the Unicode code point U+030F. In UTF-8, it is encoded using 2 bytes because its codepoint is in the range of
0x0080to0x07ff.
Therefore we know that the UTF-8 encoding will be done over 11 bits within the final 16 bits and that it will have the format:110xxxxx 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+030F to binary:
00000011 00001111. 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:
11001100 10001111

Description
The character U+030F, known as the COMBINING DOUBLE GRAVE ACCENT, is a specialized glyph used in digital text for specific applications. In typography, it serves as a diacritical mark that is applied to precede certain letters or symbols. It consists of two grave accents (˘) placed one above the other and is typically utilized to provide a double-grave accentuation. While its usage is not widespread in everyday text, it can be encountered in specific linguistic contexts or in technical documentation. The COMBINING DOUBLE GRAVE ACCENT does not have any significant cultural or historical implications; instead, it serves a purely functional role. Its primary purpose is to aid in the correct representation of certain words or symbols that require this unique diacritical mark. By enhancing legibility and clarity, the COMBINING DOUBLE GRAVE ACCENT contributes to accurate digital communication across various platforms.
