Step 1: Determine the UTF-8 encoding bit layout
The character ᮇ has the Unicode code point U+1B87. 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+1B87 to binary:
00011011 10000111
. 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 10101110 10000111

Description
The Unicode character U+1B87 represents the "Sundanese Letter O" (᮹) and is primarily used within the digital text of the Sundanese language, which is predominantly spoken in West Java, Indonesia. As part of the Sundanese script, it plays a crucial role in preserving and promoting the linguistic identity of the Sundanese people, contributing to their unique cultural heritage. The Sundanese script is written from left to right and consists of 28 letters, including consonants, vowels, and special characters. The Unicode Standard, which encodes characters from all known writing systems, ensures that these complex scripts are accurately represented in digital text. As a result, U+1B87 contributes significantly to the preservation and dissemination of Sundanese language and culture across various digital platforms and communication channels.
