Step 1: Determine the UTF-8 encoding bit layout
The character ừ has the Unicode code point U+1EEB. 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+1EEB to binary:
00011110 11101011
. 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 10101011

Description
The Unicode character U+1EEB, or "LATIN SMALL LETTER U WITH HORN AND GRAVE," plays a crucial role in digital typography by enabling the accurate representation of specific linguistic features in various languages. This unique character is often employed in digital text to convey specialized phonetic or orthographic properties that distinguish particular words, names, or phrases. Although its usage may not be widespread, U+1EEB serves an essential function for those who work with lesser-known languages and dialects, as it helps preserve the cultural integrity of these linguistic systems. By adhering to the principles of accurate and precise character encoding, Unicode characters such as U+1EEB contribute significantly to the preservation and promotion of linguistic diversity in the digital realm.
