Step 1: Determine the UTF-8 encoding bit layout
The character Ѩ has the Unicode code point U+0468. 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+0468 to binary:
00000100 01101000. 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:
11010001 10101000

Description
The Unicode character U+0468 represents the Cyrillic Capital Letter IoTIFIED Little Yus (CYRILLIC CAPITAL LETTER IOTIFIED LITTLE YUS). This specific letter is a crucial element in digital text, particularly within the context of Russian and other Slavic languages that utilize the Cyrillic script. Its unique characteristic lies in its IoTIFICATION, a process where a diacritic (a small mark placed above or below a letter) changes the pronunciation and meaning of the base character. In this case, the diacritic is denoted by the presence of two small vertical lines resembling a Y on either side of the 'I'. This distinct feature differentiates it from other Cyrillic letters and plays a significant role in accurate text representation and readability within these language systems. U+0468's cultural, linguistic, and technical context is primarily based on its usage in digital texts and its integral role in accurately conveying the intended message in languages that utilize the Cyrillic script.
