Step 1: Determine the UTF-8 encoding bit layout
The character has the Unicode code point U+3097. 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+3097 to binary:
00110000 10010111
. 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:
11100011 10000010 10010111

Description
U+3097 is a character in the Unicode standard that represents the Japanese Hiragana character '゛'. It is primarily used within the context of the Japanese writing system, where it acts as a dakuten, or a diacritical mark. A dakuten is utilized to modify the pronunciation of a base character, typically by adding a "d" or "g" sound. In digital text, U+3097 serves to accurately represent this specific character and its function within Japanese typography. The character holds significant importance in the realm of linguistic and cultural studies due to its role in shaping the pronunciation of words in the Japanese language. U+3097 is essential for maintaining accuracy and integrity in digitally displayed text, particularly when translating or displaying Japanese texts in an international context.
