Step 1: Determine the UTF-8 encoding bit layout
The character has the Unicode code point U+0CC5. 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+0CC5 to binary:
00001100 11000101
. 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:
11100000 10110011 10000101

Description
The Unicode character U+0CC5 represents the Cyrillic letter "И" (lowercase). It plays a significant role in the Russian language and other Cyrillic alphabet-based languages like Bulgarian, Serbian, Macedonian, and others. The character typically appears in digital text to represent the phoneme /i/, similar to the English "I." U+0CC5, or "CHARACTER 0CC5," is part of the Extended Cyrillic block of Unicode, which was introduced to support an extensive range of characters from various Slavic and non-Slavic languages. This character's cultural and linguistic importance cannot be overstated as it enables accurate and effective communication in these languages.
