Step 1: Determine the UTF-8 encoding bit layout
The character Ṕ has the Unicode code point U+1E54. 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+1E54 to binary:
00011110 01010100
. 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 10111001 10010100

Description
The Unicode character U+1E54 represents the Latin Capital Letter P with Acute (𝛄). This character is primarily used in digital text for representing a capital letter 'P' with an acute accent, which differentiates it from other forms of the letter 'P'. It may be employed in various contexts, such as typography, linguistics, or cultural studies. The Latin script has been widely adopted worldwide, making this character relevant in many languages and scripts. U+1E54 is part of the "Latin Extended-B" block of Unicode, which was introduced to provide a more comprehensive range of characters for Latin-based scripts. Although it may not be commonly used in everyday digital text, the Latin Capital Letter P with Acute can serve an important role in specialist areas like historical linguistics or specific regional languages that utilize unique diacritics.
