Step 1: Determine the UTF-8 encoding bit layout
The character has the Unicode code point U+1259. In UTF-8, it is encoded using 3 bytes because its codepoint is in the range of
0x0800to0xffff.
Therefore we know that the UTF-8 encoding will be done over 16 bits within the final 24 bits and that it will have the format:1110xxxx 10xxxxxx 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+1259 to binary:
00010010 01011001. 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:
11100001 10001001 10011001

Description
The Unicode character U+1259 is a Cyrillic letter known as "Д" (capital "Dze"). It is predominantly used in digital text for various Cyrillic alphabet languages, such as Russian, Bulgarian, Ukrainian, and Serbian. This particular character holds significant importance in these languages due to its unique phonetic properties, representing a voiced palatal plosive sound that distinctly differentiates it from other Cyrillic letters. U+1259 has been widely adopted in modern computer systems and software since the introduction of the Unicode Standard, which aims to provide a unique code for every character in all written languages worldwide. This standardization has facilitated seamless communication and information exchange across diverse linguistic contexts, further enhancing global digital text interaction.
