Step 1: Determine the UTF-8 encoding bit layout
The character Ȥ has the Unicode code point U+0224. 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+0224 to binary:
00000010 00100100. 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:

Description
The Unicode character U+0224 represents the "LATIN CAPITAL LETTER Z WITH HOOK". This character is utilized in digital text for typographical and stylistic purposes, often in Latin-based scripts to create a distinctive look or feel. It serves as an alternative representation of the standard capital letter 'Z', featuring a unique hooked line extending from its upper right quadrant. In some cultural, linguistic, or technical contexts, the U+0224 character may be used to represent certain accents, diacritics, or other language-specific modifications to the base letter 'Z'. While its usage is not widespread, it can still be found in niche applications such as artistic typography, historical texts, or specific regional dialects. Overall, U+0224 plays a minor yet significant role within digital text, offering an alternative version of the capital letter 'Z' that combines form with function to create a visually distinct presence.
