Step 1: Determine the UTF-8 encoding bit layout
The character で has the Unicode code point U+3067. 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+3067 to binary:
00110000 01100111
. 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 10000001 10100111

Description
U+3067, or デ (Hiragana Letter De), is a crucial character in the Japanese writing system, primarily employed in digital text. It belongs to the Hiragana script, which serves as a syllabary for the Japanese language. The character represents the 'de' sound when used in words, and plays an essential role in constructing meaningful words and phrases in Japanese. Hiragana is known for its simplicity and ease of learning compared to other scripts, making it a popular choice for native Japanese speakers and learners alike. U+3067, or デ, contributes to the fluidity and readability of digital text in Japanese, facilitating effective communication. The Hiragana script holds significant cultural, linguistic, and technical importance as it forms the basis for the modern Japanese writing system alongside Katakana and Kanji.
