Step 1: Determine the UTF-8 encoding bit layout
The character ᠄ has the Unicode code point U+1804. In UTF-8, it is encoded using 3 bytes because its codepoint is in the range of
0x0800
to0xffff
.
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 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+1804 to binary:
00011000 00000100
. 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 10100000 10000100

Description
The Unicode character U+1804 represents the "MONGOLIAN COLON". This character is an essential element in the Mongolian script, which is used to write the Mongolian language. In digital text, the Mongolian colon (U+1804) serves a critical role as a punctuation mark that separates clauses and phrases within sentences. This particular Unicode character is significant because it allows for accurate representation of the Mongolian language in digital contexts, thus facilitating communication and preserving cultural heritage. The use of U+1804 ensures the correct interpretation and comprehension of text by users who read or write in the Mongolian script.
