Step 1: Determine the UTF-8 encoding bit layout
The character ፱ has the Unicode code point U+1371. 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+1371 to binary:
00010011 01110001. 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 10110001

Description
The Unicode character U+1371 represents the Ethiopic digit nine in digital text. This specific numeral is used primarily within the Ge'ez script, which is a part of the Ethiopian writing system employed for both Amharic and various other Ethiopian languages. As an integral component of these linguistic systems, the Ethiopic digit nine serves as a crucial element in recording numerical values and quantities in Ethiopian literature, historical documents, and modern text. In digital text, U+1371 is employed to accurately convey numerical information in applications or platforms that support the Ethiopic script and its associated characters. This inclusion of the Ethiopic digit nine within Unicode enables a broader range of cultural, linguistic, and technical contexts to be preserved and understood across different languages, systems, and platforms.
