Step 1: Determine the UTF-8 encoding bit layout
The character has the Unicode code point U+1289. In UTF-8, it is encoded using 3 bytes because its codepoint is in the range of
0x0800
to0xffff
.
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 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+1289 to binary:
00010010 10001001
. 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 10001010 10001001

Description
U+1289 is a character in the Unicode Standard, specifically assigned to the range of characters known as 'Combining Tailed Yogh'. This character holds a vital role in digital text representation, primarily used in combination with other characters to modify their forms or meanings. Its unique appearance features a curved tail extending from its main body, which is an essential feature in many scripts and typography designs. U+1289 has significant cultural and linguistic contexts, particularly in Persian and Arabic scripts where it modifies the shape of characters like Yogh (U+06CC) or Alef (U+0627). Its usage follows strict rules defined by these languages' typographic systems. The character is an essential part of ensuring accurate text display, especially for users who read or write in languages that employ its unique features.
