Step 1: Determine the UTF-8 encoding bit layout
The character has the Unicode code point U+137D. 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+137D to binary:
00010011 01111101. 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 10001101 10111101

Description
U+137D is a specialized Unicode character that plays an essential role in digital text representation. It belongs to the U+A600 to U+A6FF range of characters, which primarily serve as Modifier Letters in typography, specifically for various alphabets such as the Georgian script. The character has significant cultural and linguistic importance, as it enables accurate representation of diacritical marks and tonal distinctions essential for the proper understanding and interpretation of text in these scripts. In digital contexts, U+137D is often used to provide correct accentuation and modifier support for Georgian and other similar alphabetic systems that rely on such marks for meaning and clarity. As typography and digital text continue to evolve, the importance of Unicode characters like U+137D cannot be overstated, as they facilitate accurate and culturally-sensitive communication across diverse languages and scripts.
