Step 1: Determine the UTF-8 encoding bit layout
The character Ⴋ has the Unicode code point U+10AB. 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+10AB to binary:
00010000 10101011
. 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 10000010 10101011

Description
The Unicode character U+10AB represents the Georgian Capital Letter Man (႐), which is a part of the ancient and unique Georgian script. This script, developed in the 5th century, is exclusively used for writing the Georgian language, an Indo-European language spoken primarily in Georgia and parts of Russia. In digital text, U+10AB typically serves its role as a letter in the Georgian alphabet, which consists of 38 letters. The Georgian script is notable for its unique design, with each letter composed of three vertical strokes: a single horizontal stroke through the center and two vertical strokes on either side. This distinctive feature contributes to the rich cultural heritage of Georgia and showcases the linguistic diversity in the world. U+10AB and other Georgian script characters enable accurate digital representation and communication of the Georgian language, preserving its history and tradition for future generations.
