Step 1: Determine the UTF-8 encoding bit layout
The character ᆦ has the Unicode code point U+11A6. 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+11A6 to binary:
00010001 10100110
. 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 10000110 10100110

Description
U+11A6 is a Hangul Jungseong character representing the sound "o" in Korean language. It plays an essential role in digital text by enabling accurate representation of the Korean script, which comprises three types of characters - consonants (choseong), vowels (jungseong), and final consonants (jongseong). The Hangul writing system, created during the 15th century under the reign of King Sejong the Great, has been widely used in South Korea and North Korea. U+11A6 contributes to maintaining linguistic accuracy and cultural identity in digital communication, allowing millions of Korean speakers worldwide to express their thoughts and ideas effectively online. In technical terms, U+11A6 is part of the Unicode Standard, a universal encoding system that supports most characters from all written languages, ensuring seamless exchange and processing of text across different platforms and software.
