Step 1: Determine the UTF-8 encoding bit layout
The character Ⱖ has the Unicode code point U+2C26. 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+2C26 to binary:
00101100 00100110. 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 10100110

Description
The Unicode character U+2C26, known as GLAGOLITIC CAPITAL LETTER YO, is a significant symbol within the Glagolitic script. This script has an essential historical role in the development of Slavic writing systems and was primarily used for Old Church Slavonic texts during the Middle Ages. The Glagolitic script predates Cyrillic and is considered its ancestor, with both scripts sharing common features. In digital text, U+2C26 serves as a representation of the capital letter "Yo" in Glagolitic, enabling accurate encoding and display of texts that utilize this ancient Slavonic writing system. Its inclusion in Unicode (a computing industry standard for character encoding) fosters digital preservation and accessibility of culturally significant Glagolitic texts, reflecting their linguistic and historical importance.
