Step 1: Determine the UTF-8 encoding bit layout
The character has the Unicode code point U+2067. 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+2067 to binary:
00100000 01100111. 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:
11100010 10000001 10100111

Description
The Unicode character U+2067, known as RIGHT-TO-LEFT ISOLATE (RLI), plays a vital role in digital typography for languages that use right-to-left writing systems. This character is used to mark text as right-to-left isolated text, which means it will not influence the directionality of surrounding text. Its usage is crucial when dealing with mixed scripts or bilingual content where only certain portions of the text are in a right-to-left language, such as Arabic, Hebrew, or Persian. By employing RLI, authors can prevent unwanted text reordering and ensure proper display for both right-to-left and left-to-right languages in the same document. This character demonstrates the power of Unicode to support a wide range of linguistic and cultural contexts, fostering greater communication and understanding across diverse populations.
