Step 1: Determine the UTF-8 encoding bit layout
The character ノ has the Unicode code point U+30CE. In UTF-8, it is encoded using 3 bytes because its codepoint is in the range of
0x0800to0xffff.
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 thexare 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+30CE to binary:
00110000 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:
11100011 10000011 10001110

Description
The Unicode character U+30CE represents the Katakana letter "ノ". In Japanese typography, this character is used for phonetic purposes in digital text, as it represents the syllabic sound "no" or "n". This Katakana character is an important component of the Japanese writing system, which includes both Kanji (ideograms borrowed from Chinese) and Hiragana (a more phonetic script). The usage of Katakana has grown in popularity alongside the influence of modern media and technology. U+30CE contributes to the unique linguistic and cultural context of Japanese communication, and its accurate representation is crucial for maintaining the integrity of digital text in the Japanese language.
