Step 1: Determine the UTF-8 encoding bit layout
The character Ỳ has the Unicode code point U+1EF2. 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+1EF2 to binary:
00011110 11110010. 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 10110010

Description
The Unicode character U+1EF2 represents the "LATIN CAPITAL LETTER Y WITH GRAVE". This typographical symbol is used in digital text to denote a capital letter 'Y' with a grave accent mark, which is an inverted breve (a smooth curve beneath the letter). The grave accent is commonly utilized in languages such as French and Spanish to indicate nasalization or changes in pronunciation of vowels. In terms of its usage within digital text, U+1EF2 can be used to convey specific linguistic nuances and phonetic distinctions in written forms of languages that employ the Latin script. It is crucial for preserving accurate communication in contexts where such distinctions are significant.
