Step 1: Determine the UTF-8 encoding bit layout
The character ǜ has the Unicode code point U+01DC. 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+01DC to binary:
00000001 11011100. 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+01DC, known as "LATIN SMALL LETTER U WITH DIAERESIS AND GRAVE," is a typographic symbol used primarily in digital text for representing specific sounds or phonemes in various languages. In the context of linguistics and cultural expression, this character serves an essential purpose by enabling accurate transcription and representation of certain accented vowel sounds. U+01DC combines two diacritical marks: a diaeresis (or umlaut) above the letter 'u', which indicates a short 'u' sound; and a grave accent, denoting nasalization or a distinct pronunciation. The combination of these marks allows for more precise communication in languages where such distinctions are crucial to meaning. In digital text, U+01DC is typically used in programming languages and software applications that support Unicode for accurate rendering of text with special characters.
