Step 1: Determine the UTF-8 encoding bit layout
The character has the Unicode code point U+0ADA. 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+0ADA to binary:
00001010 11011010. 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 10101011 10011010

Description
The Unicode character U+0ADA holds a unique position in the realm of typography and language representation. Specifically designated for the use in digital text, this particular code point enables the accurate encoding of specific cultural and linguistic elements that may not be easily represented through standard alphabetic characters. U+0ADA is notably tied to the Tifinagh script, which originates from the ancient Berber civilization in North Africa. The script has been utilised for centuries and is deeply ingrained with cultural significance. It represents a significant step towards preserving and promoting these cultural nuances in the digital age. In a more technical context, U+0ADA plays a crucial role in the encoding of text where the Tifinagh script is prevalent. This includes digital platforms, software applications, and operating systems that support Unicode. This ensures that information can be accurately communicated and understood across different cultures and languages. Despite its unique and specialized use, U+0ADA still adheres to the broader principles of Unicode: ensuring text clarity, avoiding ambiguity, and promoting global text processing. It serves as a testament to the power of Unicode in facilitating accurate digital communication across diverse cultural and linguistic landscapes.
