Step 1: Determine the UTF-8 encoding bit layout
The character has the Unicode code point U+1C4C. In UTF-8, it is encoded using 3 bytes because its codepoint is in the range of
0x0800to0xffff.
Therefore we know that the UTF-8 encoding will be done over 16 bits within the final 24 bits and that it will have the format:1110xxxx 10xxxxxx 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+1C4C to binary:
00011100 01001100. 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:
11100001 10110001 10001100

Description
U+1C4C is a typographical character in the Unicode Standard, representing the letter "ᴚ" (LATIN CAPITAL LETTER SHARP S). This character is typically used in digital text for various purposes, such as creating unique typography for branding or design, or as an artistic element. The sharp s is a lesser-known letter that was used primarily in the Eperanto language, where it represented the "sh" sound. Although its usage is not widespread, it holds significance in linguistic and cultural contexts due to its historical association with constructed languages and the development of typographical design. In the technical realm, U+1C4C adheres to Unicode standards, ensuring compatibility across various platforms, devices, and software applications.
