Step 1: Determine the UTF-8 encoding bit layout
The character ߃ has the Unicode code point U+07C3. 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+07C3 to binary:
00000111 11000011. 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:
11011111 10000011

Description
The Unicode character U+07C3 represents the digit 'three' in the N'Ko script, a writing system used primarily for the languages of West Africa, specifically for the Maninkakan (Mandinka), Fulani, and other African languages. This character holds importance in digital text systems that support the N'Ko script, such as word processing software and websites displaying text in these languages. It has a distinct appearance, visually representing the number '3', which is a vital numerical concept across various cultures and linguistic groups. The inclusion of U+07C3 in Unicode ensures accurate representation and support for the N'Ko digit system in digital communications, contributing to the preservation and promotion of West African languages and cultures.
