Step 1: Determine the UTF-8 encoding bit layout
The character ṇ has the Unicode code point U+1E47. 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+1E47 to binary:
00011110 01000111. 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 10000111

Description
U+1E47, also known as "LATIN SMALL LETTER N WITH DOT BELOW," is a Unicode character that plays a significant role in digital text representation. Typically used in typography, this character features a small dot placed below the letter 'n'. The presence of the dot distinguishes it from the regular lowercase 'n' (U+006E) and is often employed to convey specific phonetic or linguistic nuances in certain languages that employ diacritical marks. While it does not have a direct correlation with any particular language, it serves as an essential tool for textual representation in contexts where the additional dot below the 'n' signifies a unique sound or pronunciation. The character U+1E47 demonstrates the versatility and expressive capabilities of Unicode, which aims to accommodate diverse scripts and orthographic systems from around the world.
