Step 1: Determine the UTF-8 encoding bit layout
The character ᄤ has the Unicode code point U+1124. 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+1124 to binary:
00010001 00100100
. 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 10100100

Description
The Unicode character U+1124, known as HANGUL CHOSEONG PIEUP-SIOS-PIEUP, plays a vital role in the digital text representation of the Korean language. This specific character is part of the Korean writing system, Hangul, which consists of Choseong, Jamo, and Jeontugi characters. Hangul was created during the 15th century by King Sejong the Great as a phonetic script to facilitate literacy among the common people in Korea. In the context of Hangul, U+1124 is combined with other Jamo characters to form syllable blocks or Segyeol, which are further combined to create words and sentences. This character holds cultural significance as it reflects the rich history and linguistic heritage of Korea. Its accurate representation in digital text is crucial for maintaining the integrity of Korean language communications across various platforms and applications.
