Step 1: Determine the UTF-8 encoding bit layout
The character ᄋ has the Unicode code point U+110B. 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+110B to binary:
00010001 00001011
. 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 10001011

Description
The Unicode character U+110B, Hangul Choseong IEUNG, plays a crucial role in the Korean writing system. It is part of the Hangul script, which consists of three fundamental components: Choseong, Jamo, and Jongseong. As a Choeseong, it serves as an initial consonant that affects the pronunciation and structure of subsequent letters in the syllable block. This particular character contributes to the formation of various complex syllables, which is essential for accurate representation of Korean language in digital text. In this context, U+110B is used widely in software applications, websites, and document processing systems that support the Korean language. Although it might not be as widely recognized globally as other characters, Hangul Choseong IEUNG holds significant cultural, linguistic, and technical importance within the Korean-speaking community.
