Step 1: Determine the UTF-8 encoding bit layout
The character Ҧ has the Unicode code point U+04A6. 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+04A6 to binary:
00000100 10100110
. 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+04A6, Cyrillic Capital Letter Pe with Middle Hook, is a unique letter within the Cyrillic script that plays an essential role in the Russian and other Slavic languages. It represents the consonant sound "p" followed by the palatalization marker denoted by the middle hook. In digital text, it typically appears in words or phrases that contain this particular combination of sounds, enabling accurate translation and communication between speakers of different Slavic languages. The Cyrillic script is predominantly used in Russia, Belarus, Kazakhstan, Kyrgyzstan, and other regions with historical ties to the Russian Empire, making U+04A6 a crucial character for maintaining linguistic diversity and heritage in these areas. Overall, U+04A6 contributes significantly to digital text accuracy and cultural preservation within the Cyrillic language sphere.
