Step 1: Determine the UTF-8 encoding bit layout
The character д has the Unicode code point U+0434. 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+0434 to binary:
00000100 00110100
. 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 10110100

Description
U+0434, also known as Cyrillic Small Letter De, is a character from the Unicode standard used to represent the lowercase letter "Д" in Russian and other Cyrillic alphabets. This letter holds significant cultural, linguistic, and technical importance due to its usage in the Russian language and the many languages that utilize the Cyrillic script. In digital text, it serves as a fundamental building block for creating words and sentences, allowing communication of ideas, emotions, and information across various platforms. Its distinct appearance, characterized by an upward-pointing hook on the right side, distinguishes it from similar-looking letters in other alphabets and further emphasizes its role in preserving linguistic identity and cultural heritage.
