Step 1: Determine the UTF-8 encoding bit layout
The character ṧ has the Unicode code point U+1E67. 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+1E67 to binary:
00011110 01100111
. 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 10100111

Description
U+1E67, the Latin Small Letter S with Caron and Dot Above, is a character found within the Unicode Standard that plays a crucial role in digital text representation for certain languages. The caron (ˇ) is an accent used to modify the sound of certain consonants, particularly in Slavic languages, while the dot above (ˇ) is used to signify a specific pronunciation or modification of the base letter. In the case of U+1E67, it represents a lowercase 'S' character with both of these diacritics applied. This character enables accurate digital text representation and communication in languages that utilize these unique accent marks, ensuring that the intended meaning is conveyed correctly to users around the world.
