Step 1: Determine the UTF-8 encoding bit layout
The character Ḣ has the Unicode code point U+1E22. 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+1E22 to binary:
00011110 00100010. 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 10100010

Description
The Unicode character U+1E22, known as the Latin Capital Letter H with Dot Above (Ĥ), plays a significant role in digital text representation, particularly within the realm of linguistics and typography. This alphabetic character is part of the Extended Latin (also known as Latin-1 Supplement) Unicode block, which consists of characters that extend the basic Latin script used in many languages, such as English, Spanish, French, German, Italian, Dutch, and Portuguese. The character Ĥ with a dot above it is typically employed to represent an initial H sound in certain languages or dialects, providing a distinct visual cue for readers who are familiar with this phonetic representation. It helps differentiate between the H sound and other sounds represented by similar characters in these languages. In digital text, U+1E22 ensures accurate typographical representation of the character across various platforms and applications.
