Step 1: Determine the UTF-8 encoding bit layout
The character ᚘ has the Unicode code point U+1698. 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+1698 to binary:
00010110 10011000. 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 10011010 10011000

Description
The Unicode character U+1698 is known as the Ogham Letter Ifin. It holds a significant place in the realm of typography and digital text, specifically in the context of the ancient Ogham script. This script, primarily used for writing the early Irish language, has its roots firmly embedded in Celtic culture. The Ogham Letters, including U+1698 Ifin, are unique in their vertical orientation, consisting of a series of lines or notches on a single upright stroke. While the exact usage and function of this character within digital text may be limited due to its cultural specificity, the preservation of such characters in Unicode ensures that this piece of linguistic history can be accurately represented and studied in modern computing environments.
