Step 1: Determine the UTF-8 encoding bit layout
The character ㅵ has the Unicode code point U+3175. 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+3175 to binary:
00110001 01110101
. 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:
11100011 10000101 10110101

Description
The Unicode character U+3175, Hangul Letter Pieup-Sios-Tikeut, plays a pivotal role in digital text representation within the Korean language. Specifically, it is one of the 11,172 characters that make up the Hangul writing system, which was developed during the 15th century under the ruling of King Sejong the Great. The Hangul script is an alphabetic writing system used primarily in South Korea and North Korea for written communication. In digital text, U+3175 is commonly employed to accurately represent the specific phonetic and semantic values associated with the Pieup-Sios-Tikeut combination. It is important to note that each Hangul letter carries both an inherent consonant sound and a vowel sound when used in a syllable block, making U+3175 a vital component of Korean typography.
