Step 1: Determine the UTF-8 encoding bit layout
The character ߓ has the Unicode code point U+07D3. 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+07D3 to binary:
00000111 11010011
. 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 10010011

Description
The Unicode character U+07D3 represents the N'Ko letter "ba" (NKO LETTER BA), which is an essential element in the written expression of the N'Ko language, primarily spoken by the Malinke people in West Africa. As a part of the N'Ko script, this character plays a crucial role in digital text, enabling accurate communication and preservation of linguistic nuances. The N'Ko script was developed in the 1940s by Solomana Bangoura, and its adoption has significantly contributed to the promotion of cultural heritage and identity among the Malinke people. Today, U+07D3 and other N'Ko characters are used across various digital platforms, including websites, documents, and software applications, to ensure the accurate representation and transmission of the N'Ko language in a globalized world.
