Step 1: Determine the UTF-8 encoding bit layout
The character Ḏ has the Unicode code point U+1E0E. 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+1E0E to binary:
00011110 00001110. 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:
11100001 10111000 10001110

Description
U+1E0E, also known as Latin Capital Letter D with Line Below, is a typographic character primarily used to indicate a specific accentuation in digital text. This Unicode character holds a significant position in linguistic contexts where it serves to differentiate words or phrases with similar meanings but distinct connotations. Its usage is predominantly observed in the Esperanto language, where it replaces the letter 'D' when used as a verb and helps convey the nuanced meaning of the term. In this manner, the character plays an essential role in maintaining linguistic accuracy and clarity within digital text. Additionally, the inclusion of U+1E0E in the Unicode Standard demonstrates its importance in representing diverse language systems, thereby fostering effective communication across cultural and linguistic boundaries.
