Step 1: Determine the UTF-8 encoding bit layout
The character Ⰻ has the Unicode code point U+2C0B. 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+2C0B to binary:
00101100 00001011
. 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:
11100010 10110000 10001011

Description
U+2C0B is a Unicode character that represents the Glagolitic Capital Letter I (Ҥ). This character holds significant importance in digital text as it serves as an essential building block for the Glagolitic alphabet, which was developed in the 9th century by the Byzantine missionaries Cyril and Methodius. The alphabet played a pivotal role in the Slavic linguistic and cultural landscape, particularly during the Early Middle Ages. The Glagolitic script is not just a system of writing; it also embodies the historical and religious significance of its time. It was extensively used for liturgical texts in the Eastern Orthodox Church, specifically among Slavic people residing in regions that were part of the medieval Bulgarian state. In terms of technical context, U+2C0B is classified under the 'Glagolitic' block of Unicode characters (U+2C00 to U+2C5F). This block was added in version 3.1 of Unicode, which became available in the year 2004. The inclusion of this character in the Unicode Standard allows for accurate and consistent representation of Glagolitic texts across various digital platforms and applications, thereby preserving a vital aspect of Slavic linguistic heritage. In conclusion, U+2C0B is an essential character within the context of digital text, serving as a key component in the preservation and representation of the Glagolitic alphabet's rich history and cultural significance.
