Step 1: Determine the UTF-8 encoding bit layout
The character ჸ has the Unicode code point U+10F8. 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+10F8 to binary:
00010000 11111000
. 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 10000011 10111000

Description
The Unicode character U+10F8 represents the Georgian letter EliFi (ჯ), which is a significant element of the Georgian script. This script is used primarily for writing the Kartvelian language, Georgian, in various digital text applications. As part of the Mkhedruli script, introduced in 1927 as the standard form of written Georgian, EliFi holds essential cultural, linguistic, and technical contexts within the Georgian language. It is a core component of written communication in Georgia, playing a crucial role in preserving the nation's rich literary history and facilitating modern-day discourse among speakers of Georgian.
