Step 1: Determine the UTF-8 encoding bit layout
The character has the Unicode code point U+05CE. In UTF-8, it is encoded using 2 bytes because its codepoint is in the range of
0x0080
to0x07ff
.
Therefore we know that the UTF-8 encoding will be done over 11 bits within the final 16 bits and that it will have the format:110xxxxx 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+05CE to binary:
00000101 11001110
. 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:
11010111 10001110

Description
The Unicode character U+05CE (Character 05CE) is known as the Cyrillic Capital Letter Yeru. This character holds a significant role in digital text as it is widely used within the Cyrillic script, which spans several languages including Russian, Bulgarian, Ukrainian, and many others. U+05CE is primarily used to denote the sound 'Y' in these languages, which is an essential element of their phonetic system. The Cyrillic script is deeply embedded in the cultural and linguistic heritage of these regions, thus making U+05CE an important element in maintaining linguistic identity and continuity across generations. In terms of technical context, U+05CE is a crucial component for accurately representing text in digital platforms, ensuring effective communication, and supporting language preservation efforts.
