Step 1: Determine the UTF-8 encoding bit layout
The character ᾃ has the Unicode code point U+1F83. 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+1F83 to binary:
00011111 10000011. 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 10111110 10000011

Description
The character U+1F83, also known as "GREEK SMALL LETTER ALPHA WITH DASIA AND VARIA AND YPOGEGRAMMENI," is a specialized Unicode character primarily used in digital text for typographical and historical purposes. It represents the Greek letter alpha with three diacritical marks: dasi, varia, and hypogeagrammeni. In ancient Greek manuscripts, these diacritics were employed to denote long vowels, syllable separation, and other phonetic features. Today, this character is mainly used in the context of typography, linguistic studies, and digital humanities for its historical significance and aesthetic appeal. It's not typically utilized in everyday digital text or regular writing systems due to its complexity and limited modern usage. However, it remains an essential part of Unicode's extensive character set, reflecting the richness and diversity of written languages worldwide.
