Step 1: Determine the UTF-8 encoding bit layout
The character ჱ has the Unicode code point U+10F1. 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+10F1 to binary:
00010000 11110001
. 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 10110001

Description
The Unicode character U+10F1 represents the Georgian letter "HE" (ᲂ), which is part of the Georgian script. This script belongs to the Kartvelian language family and is primarily used for writing the Georgian language, an Indo-European language spoken predominantly in Georgia. In digital text, U+10F1 serves as a fundamental building block for encoding words, phrases, and sentences in the Georgian language. The Georgian script is unique in its design, featuring distinctive cursive forms, and it has been widely used since the 5th century. Although U+10F1 itself might not hold significant cultural or linguistic importance on its own, it contributes to the richness and expressiveness of the Georgian language, which has a long history of literary and scholarly traditions. In technical contexts, U+10F1 is essential for accurately representing digital text in the Georgian language, ensuring that texts are displayed and processed correctly across various platforms and devices.
