Step 1: Determine the UTF-8 encoding bit layout
The character Ḙ has the Unicode code point U+1E18. 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+1E18 to binary:
00011110 00011000. 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 10011000

Description
The Unicode character U+1E18, known as LATIN CAPITAL LETTER E WITH CIRCUMFLEX BELOW, is a typographical symbol that holds significant value in digital text due to its role in representing specific linguistic or cultural contexts. Typically used in the Latin script, this character features an accentuated 'E' with a circumflex (^) below it, differentiating it from the standard uppercase E. The circumflex below serves as a historical marker for various languages that have adapted it into their orthography, such as Old French or Middle English. Its usage in digital text often depends on the context of communication, whether it is for academic purposes, cultural preservation, or creative expression. Despite not being widely used in everyday language, this character remains a crucial part of Unicode's extensive library, highlighting the importance of preserving linguistic and typographical diversity.
