Step 1: Determine the UTF-8 encoding bit layout
The character ポ has the Unicode code point U+30DD. 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+30DD to binary:
00110000 11011101
. 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 10011101

Description
U+30DD, known as the Katakana Letter Po (ポ), is a character within the Unicode Standard, specifically designed for digital text representation in the Japanese script system of writing. In the Katakana syllabary, it represents a specific sound or phoneme, much like other characters in this set. This particular character has a unique cultural and linguistic significance as part of the intricate system of written communication used predominantly in Japan. Though its usage is limited to specific language contexts, it contributes to the richness and expressiveness of Japanese language expression in digital media platforms, providing an essential tool for accurate text representation.
