Step 1: Determine the UTF-8 encoding bit layout
The character has the Unicode code point U+1CBC. 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+1CBC to binary:
00011100 10111100
. 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 10110010 10111100

Description
The Unicode character U+1CBC, known as "CHARACTER 1CBC", holds significance within the realm of digital typography and encoding systems. Specifically, it is a part of the Unicode standard, which is designed to accommodate characters from all writing systems across the globe, enabling efficient and accurate representation of text in digital media. U+1CBC does not have any typical usage or role in digital text as it falls under the range of unassigned or private use code points in the Unicode character encoding system. These code points are often used for proprietary or private purposes, such as internal use within an organization or to represent characters that do not have a standardized Unicode assignment. As a result, CHARACTER 1CBC does not have any notable cultural, linguistic, or technical context in the public sphere, but it is an essential component of the comprehensive and expansive Unicode system which continues to facilitate seamless communication and data exchange across the world.
