Step 1: Determine the UTF-8 encoding bit layout
The character Ⱒ has the Unicode code point U+2C22. 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+2C22 to binary:
00101100 00100010. 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 10100010

Description
The Unicode character U+2C22 represents the Glagolitic Capital Letter Spidery Ha (ᄐ). In the realm of digital text, this character serves a specific role in typography and is often used for various purposes such as displaying text in the Glagolitic script. The Glagolitic script has cultural, linguistic, and technical significance, as it was created by the Slavic apostles Cyril and Methodius in the 9th century to transcribe Old Church Slavonic texts. The term "spidery" refers to its unique, spider-like appearance, which sets it apart from other Glagolitic characters. This distinctive design is believed to have been influenced by the decorative elements of early medieval manuscripts. In modern digital typography, U+2C22 plays an important role in preserving and showcasing the rich history and heritage of the Slavic people and their cultural contributions to the world.
