Step 1: Determine the UTF-8 encoding bit layout
The character Е has the Unicode code point U+0415. In UTF-8, it is encoded using 2 bytes because its codepoint is in the range of
0x0080
to0x07ff
.
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 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+0415 to binary:
00000100 00010101
. 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:
11010000 10010101

Description
U+0415, the Cyrillic Capital Letter IE, is a vital character in the Unicode Standard. It primarily serves as a key component in digital text for languages that use the Cyrillic script, such as Russian, Ukrainian, and Bulgarian. In these contexts, it represents the voiced palatal fricative consonant sound /j/. The Cyrillic script has historical roots dating back to the 9th century, and its evolution into various forms reflects the cultural and linguistic diversity of Slavic-speaking regions. Today, the IE character remains essential for maintaining accurate communication in these languages and supporting their respective writing systems in digital environments.
