Step 1: Determine the UTF-8 encoding bit layout
The character ẳ has the Unicode code point U+1EB3. 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+1EB3 to binary:
00011110 10110011. 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 10111010 10110011

Description
The character U+1EB3, known as "LATIN SMALL LETTER A WITH BREVE AND HOOK ABOVE," holds a significant role in digital text by providing an essential function for linguistic expression. This particular Unicode character is specifically designed to represent the combination of two diacritical marks - the breve and the acute accent - on the letter 'a'. The breve, represented as a horizontal line beneath the letter, indicates a short vowel sound, while the hook or acute accent above it, signals a stress on that syllable. This combination is crucial in various languages for accurate pronunciation and to distinguish between different words with similar sequences of letters. In a broader context, U+1EB3 represents the versatility and inclusivity of Unicode, ensuring that digital text accurately reflects the linguistic diversity across the globe.
