Step 1: Determine the UTF-8 encoding bit layout
The character ẕ has the Unicode code point U+1E95. 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+1E95 to binary:
00011110 10010101
. 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 10010101

Description
The character U+1E95, known as "LATIN SMALL LETTER Z WITH LINE BELOW," is a typographical symbol used in digital text. It is derived from the Latin alphabet, and serves to represent the lowercase letter 'z' with a horizontal line running below it. This character is commonly employed in various applications such as programming languages, website development, and document formatting. In some cases, it may be utilized for stylistic purposes or to convey specific meanings within linguistic or cultural contexts where the standard 'z' might not suffice. The use of U+1E95 is a testament to the versatility and adaptability of Unicode, which aims to represent every possible character from all world scripts.
