Step 1: Determine the UTF-8 encoding bit layout
The character ᆊ has the Unicode code point U+118A. 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+118A to binary:
00010001 10001010
. 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 10001010

Description
The Unicode character U+118A represents the Hangul Jungseong "U-AE". This character serves a crucial role in the Korean language, particularly in digital text encoding, where it is utilized as part of the Korean writing system known as Hangul. Hangul consists of a combination of Hangul Jamo, which include Consonants (Choseong, Jongseong, and Cheungsim), Vowels (Yeopjeung), and Jungseong (which includes U-AE). The U-AE Jungseong can be combined with other characters to create various syllables in Korean. Its usage reflects the importance of the Hangul writing system within Korean culture and language, enabling efficient communication and expression of diverse ideas. Due to its integral role in digital text encoding for the Korean language, mastering the use of U+118A and other Hangul characters is vital for accurate representation and understanding of texts in this context.
