Step 1: Determine the UTF-8 encoding bit layout
The character อ has the Unicode code point U+0353. 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+0353 to binary:
00000011 01010011. 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 10010011

Description
The Unicode character U+0353, also known as the COMBINING X BELOW (๐), is a specialized typographic element that serves a specific role in digital text. Its primary usage is in combining with other characters to create a unique and visually distinct appearance. In linguistic contexts, this character is often employed in constructing Greek and other alphabetic scripts, where it is used to represent an x placed below the base character. This enables the creation of intricate typographic designs that are often found in logo design, branding, and various forms of visual communication. The COMBINING X BELOW is not meant for general text use but rather serves as a specialized tool within the world of typography and digital text design. Its precise placement and application require a careful understanding of Unicode standards and typographic principles to ensure accurate and effective usage.
