Step 1: Determine the UTF-8 encoding bit layout
The character ⲻ has the Unicode code point U+2CBB. 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+2CBB to binary:
00101100 10111011. 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:
11100010 10110010 10111011

Description
The Unicode character U+2CBB represents the COPTIC SMALL LETTER DIALECT-P NI (𝚽) in digital text. This character is primarily used for transcribing and encoding texts in the ancient Coptic language, which was spoken by Egyptians during the period of Coptic Christianity (circa 1st century CE to the present day). The Coptic alphabet, from which this character originates, is based on the Greek script and has been adopted for various languages such as Arabic, Ethiopian, and Hebrew. U+2CBB serves a crucial role in digital communication and representation of texts that require the use of the Coptic language. As a part of the Unicode Standard, this character contributes to preserving and promoting linguistic diversity and cultural heritage across various platforms and devices.
