Step 1: Determine the UTF-8 encoding bit layout
The character ⷧ has the Unicode code point U+2DE7. In UTF-8, it is encoded using 3 bytes because its codepoint is in the range of
0x0800
to0xffff
.
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 thex
are 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+2DE7 to binary:
00101101 11100111
. 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 10110111 10100111

Description
The Unicode character U+2DE7 represents the COMBINING CYRILLIC LETTER EL. This typographical symbol is used in digital text for combining with other Cyrillic characters to form a single unitary glyph. Its primary role lies within the realm of digital typography, where it is utilized to create various diacritical marks, accents or ligatures that may not be available as standalone Unicode characters. This character can be seen in languages like Tatar, Bashkir, and other Cyrillic-based scripts where it serves as a vital part of the script's structure and pronunciation system. The COMBINING CYRILLIC LETTER EL is an essential tool for accurate representation of these languages on digital platforms, thereby playing a crucial role in facilitating multilingual communication and preserving cultural identity.
