Step 1: Determine the UTF-8 encoding bit layout
The character ᄼ has the Unicode code point U+113C. 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+113C to binary:
00010001 00111100
. 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:
11100001 10000100 10111100

Description
The Unicode character U+113C, known as HANGUL CHOSEONG CHITUEUMSIOS, is an essential component in the Korean language. In the digital text, it serves as a consonant in the Korean Hangul script, which consists of 144 basic characters called jamo. Each jamo can be combined to form syllables, and these syllables are then assembled to create words. The character U+113C specifically represents the Chitueumsios choeseong, one of the fourteen consonant letters in the Korean alphabet. It is characterized by a horizontal line with three small lines beneath it, resembling a miniature staircase. This typographical feature helps distinguish it from other characters in the Hangul script. U+113C has a significant role in the Korean language as it contributes to the correct pronunciation and understanding of words in written Korean. As an integral part of the Hangul script, which is the official writing system of both North and South Korea, the Unicode character U+113C is crucial for accurate communication and preserving linguistic integrity in digital text.
