Step 1: Determine the UTF-8 encoding bit layout
The character Ⱀ has the Unicode code point U+2C10. In UTF-8, it is encoded using 3 bytes because its codepoint is in the range of
0x0800to0xffff.
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 thexare 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+2C10 to binary:
00101100 00010000. 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 10010000

Description
The Unicode character U+2C10, known as GLAGOLITIC CAPITAL LETTER NASHI, holds significant importance in digital text representation. It is a typographical symbol from the Glagolitic script, which was developed in the 9th century and predominantly used for writing Old Church Slavonic, the liturgical language of the Eastern Orthodox Church in the early Middle Ages. The Glagolitic script is historically crucial as it is considered one of the earliest Slavic writing systems and has deep cultural and linguistic roots in Eastern Europe. In digital text, U+2C10 serves as a critical element for accurate representation of historical texts, particularly those in the Old Church Slavonic language. Its use enables modern computers and software to correctly display and process Glagolitic characters, facilitating research and understanding of this ancient script. This character, like other Glagolitic letters, is integral for preserving and studying the linguistic heritage of Slavic languages and their evolution over time. By accurately encoding such characters in digital platforms, we ensure that future generations can appreciate and study these cultural artifacts.
