Step 1: Determine the UTF-8 encoding bit layout
The character has the Unicode code point U+0A7B. 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+0A7B to binary:
00001010 01111011
. 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 10101001 10111011

Description
U+0A7B is a character in the Unicode standard, which represents a specific glyph or symbol in digital text. The character code 0A7B corresponds to the Arabic Letter Seen (ع) in the Arabic script. In digital text, this character is commonly used within various applications and software that support the Arabic language. It plays an essential role in maintaining linguistic accuracy and cultural authenticity when displaying or processing text written in Arabic scripts. The Arabic script is a right-to-left writing system, which means that characters like U+0A7B must be rendered and displayed accordingly to ensure proper reading order and clarity. Arabic typography also requires specific design considerations to maintain the aesthetic integrity of the text, making Unicode and its well-defined character codes crucial for accurate digital representation of the language.
