Step 1: Determine the UTF-8 encoding bit layout
The character has the Unicode code point U+0DCD. 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+0DCD to binary:
00001101 11001101
. 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:
11100000 10110111 10001101

Description
U+0DCD is a Unicode character with the code point 0DCD, which represents the Cyrillic capital letter "Є" (Ye). This letter is used in several languages that utilize the Cyrillic script, such as Ukrainian, Belarusian, and Old Church Slavonic. In digital text, U+0DCD serves a crucial role by enabling accurate representation of these languages on electronic devices and software applications. Its usage contributes to the preservation of cultural heritage and facilitates communication among speakers of these languages. As part of the Cyrillic script, U+0DCD has its origins in the Glagolitic alphabet, which dates back to the 9th century AD. The character is significant for its unique combination of a horizontal stroke through a vertical one, giving it a distinctive appearance that distinguishes it from other letters in the Cyrillic script. In terms of encoding, U+0DCD belongs to the range of characters designated as "Cyrillic Capital Letters" (Block: 0410, Subrange: 040F-04FF), which encompasses all uppercase letters used in modern and historical Cyrillic-based languages.
