Step 1: Determine the UTF-8 encoding bit layout
The character Dž has the Unicode code point U+01C5. In UTF-8, it is encoded using 2 bytes because its codepoint is in the range of
0x0080to0x07ff.
Therefore we know that the UTF-8 encoding will be done over 11 bits within the final 16 bits and that it will have the format:110xxxxx 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+01C5 to binary:
00000001 11000101. 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:
11000111 10000101

Description
The Unicode character U+01C5, known as LATIN CAPITAL LETTER D WITH SMALL LETTER Z WITH CARON, is a specialized letter used primarily in digital text for representing specific sounds or characters in certain languages. Its role lies in representing the sound 'd͡z' or 'dz' when used in Slavic and other European languages that utilize the Latin script with diacritics. This character is particularly prominent in Czech and Slovak, where it symbolizes the consonant combination 'dz'. It is also utilized in other Slavic languages such as Polish and Serbian Cyrillic for specific phonetic requirements or to indicate certain linguistic features. As part of Unicode, U+01C5 ensures accurate digital representation of these sounds, thus maintaining cultural and linguistic integrity while facilitating effective communication in the digital sphere.
