Step 1: Determine the UTF-8 encoding bit layout
The character т has the Unicode code point U+0442. 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+0442 to binary:
00000100 01000010
. 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
U+0442 is the Unicode code point for "CYRILLIC SMALL LETTER TE" (Cyrillic Те). In digital text, this character is used as part of the Cyrillic script, which is the writing system for several languages, most prominently Russian. The Cyrillic script has its origins in the 9th century and is widely used in Eastern Europe, the Caucasus, and Central Asia. U+0442 plays a crucial role in these languages as it represents one of their essential phonemes, corresponding to the English sound "t" or "d". It's important to note that the Cyrillic script is not case-sensitive like the Latin alphabet, so there is no uppercase version of U+0442.
