Step 1: Determine the UTF-8 encoding bit layout
The character has the Unicode code point U+0ABB. In UTF-8, it is encoded using 3 bytes because its codepoint is in the range of
0x0800
to0xffff
.
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 thex
are 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+0ABB to binary:
00001010 10111011
. 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:
11100000 10101010 10111011

Description
The Unicode character U+0ABB (Character 0ABB) is a unique symbol with limited use in digital text. It belongs to the Miscellaneous Technical category of Unicode characters, which include symbols used for a wide variety of technical purposes, such as control characters and special symbols used in computing environments. While this character may not have any specific cultural or linguistic significance, it plays an important role in digital communication by representing a specific function or control command in certain contexts. As with many less commonly used Unicode characters, the character 0ABB is primarily employed in specialized technical fields where its specific function or meaning would be understood by those familiar with the relevant systems and processes.
