Step 1: Determine the UTF-8 encoding bit layout
The character ᵖ has the Unicode code point U+1D56. 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+1D56 to binary:
00011101 01010110
. 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 10010110

Description
The Unicode character U+1D56, known as the Modifier Letter Small P (⡬), plays a crucial role in digital typography by enabling the use of diacritic marks with uppercase letters. This character is part of the Modifier Letters block, which includes various diacritical marks used to modify other characters in different languages or scripts. The Modifier Letter Small P does not have any notable cultural, linguistic, or technical context on its own, as it depends on the preceding uppercase letter for functionality. However, it serves as a valuable tool in typography and digital text to ensure accurate representation of specific diacritical marks across different languages and scripts.
