Step 1: Determine the UTF-8 encoding bit layout
The character ㅌ has the Unicode code point U+314C. 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+314C to binary:
00110001 01001100
. 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 10001100

Description
The Unicode character U+314C represents the Hangul letter Thieuth (ᄋ), which is part of the Korean alphabet known as Hangul. Hangul is a writing system that has been used in the Korean language since the 15th century, and it consists of 14 consonants and 10 vowels. The character Thieuth (ᄋ) is used to represent a specific consonant sound in the Korean language. In digital text, Hangul letters like Thieuth are essential for accurately representing Korean text, as they enable proper pronunciation and understanding of the language. Hangul's unique design allows native speakers to learn the alphabet quickly, and its systematic structure is often praised for its efficiency and simplicity. The Unicode character encoding system ensures that characters like U+314C can be accurately represented and displayed across different digital platforms and devices, enabling global communication and exchange of information in Korean language.
