Step 1: Determine the UTF-8 encoding bit layout
The character Პ has the Unicode code point U+1C9E. 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+1C9E to binary:
00011100 10011110
. 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 10011110

Description
U+1C9E is a character within the Georgian Script, known as the Georgian Mtavruli Capital Letter Par. It serves a vital role in digital text by representing the consonant "P" in the classical Georgian script Mtavruli. The Mtavruli script, which was developed during the 5th century AD, is one of the three historical scripts used to write the Georgian language, the others being Asomtavruli and Nuskhuri. U+1C9E holds significant cultural importance as it reflects the rich heritage of the Georgian writing system, which has been inscribed on UNESCO's Memory of the World Register. The character is used extensively in digital text for preserving, transmitting, and displaying historical documents and modern literature written in the Georgian language.
