Step 1: Determine the UTF-8 encoding bit layout
The character Ѫ has the Unicode code point U+046A. 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+046A to binary:
00000100 01101010. 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
The Unicode character U+046A represents the Cyrillic Capital Letter Big Yus (В). In digital text, this letter plays a vital role in the Russian language and other Slavic languages that use the Cyrillic script. It is a part of the extended Latin alphabet, which has been used for centuries to transcribe various languages. The Cyrillic script was developed during the 9th century by two Byzantine Greek brothers, Saints Cyril and Methodius, with the aim of translating religious texts into Slavic languages. Today, the Cyrillic Capital Letter Big Yus is essential in preserving the cultural identity of millions of people who speak Russian and other Slavic languages. It helps maintain linguistic continuity and supports accurate translation for global communication. As technology continues to advance, ensuring the proper usage of characters like U+046A becomes even more important for maintaining the integrity of written communications in these languages.
