Step 1: Determine the UTF-8 encoding bit layout
The character Ờ has the Unicode code point U+1EDC. 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+1EDC to binary:
00011110 11011100
. 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 10111011 10011100

Description
U+1EDC, or "LATIN CAPITAL LETTER O WITH HORN AND GRAVE," is a specialized character in the Unicode standard used to represent specific phonetic or typographical features in digital text. Its primary usage lies within the realm of linguistics and typeface design, where it serves as a distinctive letter form that combines both the horn and grave diacritical marks with the capital "O." This unique combination allows for the representation of sounds that may not be present in standard Latin script. Although U+1EDC is less common compared to other Unicode characters, its presence within digital text demonstrates an understanding of the diverse range of phonetic features and linguistic nuances that exist across various languages and dialects. In this way, U+1EDC contributes to the accuracy and comprehensiveness of text representation in digital media.
