Step 1: Determine the UTF-8 encoding bit layout
The character ͅ has the Unicode code point U+0345. 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+0345 to binary:
00000011 01000101. 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:
11001101 10000101

Description
The Unicode character U+0345, known as the COMBINING GREEK YPOGEGRAMMENI, is a specialized typographical element that serves a specific purpose in digital text. It is used to combine with other Greek characters to create unique and complex symbols, often found in mathematical notations or scientific expressions. However, its usage has become less prevalent due to the limitations of many digital platforms and fonts. Although it holds cultural significance within the realm of Greek typography, it is rarely seen in general use today. The COMBINING GREEK YPOGEGRAMMENI symbol highlights the diversity and richness of the Unicode standard, which strives to include characters from various scripts and languages for global digital communication.
