Step 1: Determine the UTF-8 encoding bit layout
The character ΅ has the Unicode code point U+1FEE. 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+1FEE to binary:
00011111 11101110. 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 10111111 10101110

Description
The Unicode character U+1FEE represents the Greek Dialytika and Oxia (GREEK DIALYTIKA AND OXIA). In digital text, this character serves a significant purpose in encoding the diacritical marks used in the Greek language. It is commonly utilized to denote the Dialytika, which is an accent that indicates a vowel sound, and the Oxia, which represents a long vowel sound. The character is crucial for preserving the linguistic and cultural nuances of the Greek language when it is transcribed or processed in digital environments. By ensuring accurate encoding and rendering of these diacritical marks, U+1FEE contributes to the faithful representation of Greek text, thereby facilitating communication and understanding across cultures and linguistic communities.
