Step 1: Determine the UTF-8 encoding bit layout
The character Ͱ has the Unicode code point U+0370. 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+0370 to binary:
00000011 01110000. 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:

Description
U+0370, or the Greek Capital Letter Heta (Ή), is a lesser-known letter within the Unicode character set. It represents the Greek uppercase letter Heta, which is used in the Epeian dialect of Ancient Greek. This particular letter holds significance for scholars and historians who study ancient languages and textual artifacts. Although it may not be frequently used in modern Greek, Heta has been crucial in deciphering and translating archaic texts, providing insight into the historical linguistic development and cultural context of the time. Its inclusion in the Unicode system facilitates its digital use for typography, academic research, and preservation of ancient textual heritage.
