Step 1: Determine the UTF-8 encoding bit layout
The character ᵱ has the Unicode code point U+1D71. 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+1D71 to binary:
00011101 01110001
. 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 10110101 10110001

Description
The Unicode character U+1D71 represents the Latin small letter "p" with middle tilde (ό). In digital text, it is primarily used to represent a specific phoneme in certain languages or dialects, such as Spanish and Portuguese, where the character represents a voiced bilabial fricative sound. Although not extensively used in everyday communication, it plays an important role in linguistic studies and transcription of these languages. The character is also helpful in the fields of typography and graphic design for creating unique or distinctive styles of text. In a technical context, U+1D71 adheres to the Unicode Standard, which aims to provide a unique number for every character, emoji, symbol, and glyph, allowing for seamless interchangeability across different platforms and devices.
