Step 1: Determine the UTF-8 encoding bit layout
The character ᵢ has the Unicode code point U+1D62. 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+1D62 to binary:
00011101 01100010. 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 10100010

Description
U+1D62, the Latin Subscript Small Letter I, is a typographical character that primarily serves as an element within digital text. Its role is typically found in mathematical expressions or scientific notations where it represents a lowercase 'i' subscripted below another character or symbol to signify a specific variable or element within a series. In certain cases, the Latin Subscript Small Letter I can be employed in linguistic contexts for representing dialects or languages that use subscript letters as part of their orthography. However, its usage is relatively rare compared to other characters from the Basic Multilingual Plane of Unicode. Despite its limited application, the U+1D62 character remains an essential tool for those working in fields that require precise notation and clear communication of complex concepts.
