Step 1: Determine the UTF-8 encoding bit layout
The character Ť has the Unicode code point U+0164. In UTF-8, it is encoded using 2 bytes because its codepoint is in the range of
0x0080
to0x07ff
.
Therefore we know that the UTF-8 encoding will be done over 11 bits within the final 16 bits and that it will have the format:110xxxxx 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+0164 to binary:
00000001 01100100
. 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:
11000101 10100100

Description
U+0164, the Latin Capital Letter T with Caron, is a typographical character within the Unicode standard, which represents the uppercase form of the letter "T" with an acute accent (caron) added. This character is primarily used in digital text to represent the sound [ʃ] in various Slavic languages, such as Czech and Slovak. In these languages, it serves a vital role in phonetics, helping differentiate words with similar orthographies but distinct pronunciations. U+0164's usage in digital text ensures accurate representation of these linguistic nuances, contributing to effective communication and proper language understanding among speakers of Slavic tongues. The character also adheres to the Unicode standard's goal of supporting a wide range of scripts, promoting diversity and inclusivity within written communication.
