Step 1: Determine the UTF-8 encoding bit layout
The character has the Unicode code point U+0AE4. 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+0AE4 to binary:
00001010 11100100
. 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 10100100

Description
U+0AE4 is a Unicode character that represents the Cyrillic capital letter "Ҹ". In digital text, it serves as a part of the Cyrillic script, which is used in various languages such as Russian, Ukrainian, Belarusian, and others. The Cyrillic script has been in use for over 1000 years, with its origins dating back to the First Bulgarian Empire. U+0AE4's typical usage is within the context of these languages, where it may be used as a letter in words or phrases. However, this character might not be commonly used, as it is considered an "ancillary" character and can be replaced by other Cyrillic letters in most cases. In technical contexts, U+0AE4 plays a role in encoding and displaying text in digital systems that support Unicode standards. Its usage may be seen more frequently in specialized fields like linguistics, typography, or computer programming where accurate representation of all characters is important.
