Step 1: Determine the UTF-8 encoding bit layout
The character ư has the Unicode code point U+01B0. 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+01B0 to binary:
00000001 10110000
. 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+01B0, known as "LATIN SMALL LETTER U WITH HORN" (Ỹ), is a special letter used primarily in digital text to represent a variant of the lowercase Latin letter 'u'. This unique symbol features an extended vertical stroke extending from the left side of the letter, giving it a distinct and visually appealing appearance. Although not commonly used in everyday written communication, U+01B0 finds its place in typographical design, where it is often employed for stylistic purposes or to create specific visual effects. Its usage can also be found within specific languages or dialects where this variant of 'u' holds cultural or historical significance. As part of the Unicode Standard, U+01B0 ensures consistency and accurate representation across various digital platforms and applications.
