Step 1: Determine the UTF-8 encoding bit layout
The character Ƞ has the Unicode code point U+0220. In UTF-8, it is encoded using 2 bytes because its codepoint is in the range of
0x0080
to0x07ff
.
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 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+0220 to binary:
00000010 00100000
. 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:
11001000 10100000

Description
The Unicode character U+0220, or "LATIN CAPITAL LETTER N WITH LONG RIGHT LEG," is a typographical symbol primarily used in digital text for specific linguistic, cultural, or technical purposes. In its typical usage, this character represents the capital letter 'N' with an extended right leg, setting it apart from the standard Latin capital 'N'. This unique form of the letter is often employed in contexts where clear distinction is necessary or to emphasize a particular stylistic choice. It is not commonly found in everyday language, but rather in specialized fields such as typography, design, or specific regional dialects where this extended form holds cultural significance. By focusing on accuracy and precision, the U+0220 character ensures effective communication and prevents confusion with other similar characters in digital text.
