Step 1: Determine the UTF-8 encoding bit layout
The character has the Unicode code point U+0DF5. 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+0DF5 to binary:
00001101 11110101
. 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 10110101

Description
The Unicode character U+0DF5 is a unique and specialized symbol with specific cultural, linguistic, and technical significance. Its typical usage lies in digital text encoding, where it serves as an essential building block for certain languages or scripts. While not widely recognized outside of specific communities, the importance of this character cannot be understated. It plays a crucial role in maintaining linguistic diversity and enabling the preservation of cultural heritage through its presence in Unicode's extensive character repertoire. The U+0DF5 character represents a vital link to lesser-known languages or scripts that would otherwise struggle to maintain their distinct identities in the digital realm, thereby contributing to global communication and understanding.
