Step 1: Determine the UTF-8 encoding bit layout
The character ᮛ has the Unicode code point U+1B9B. 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+1B9B to binary:
00011011 10011011. 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 10011011

Description
U+1B9B is the Unicode code point for "SUNDANESE LETTER RA." This character plays a crucial role in digital text representation of the Sundanese language, which is spoken by millions in West Java, Indonesia. As part of the Javanese and Sundanese script (Unicode block: 1B90-1BA8), U+1B9B contributes to the accurate encoding and display of this unique and important regional language. Although not widely used outside its cultural context, the character's inclusion in Unicode ensures that digital content remains accessible and understandable for speakers of Sundanese, thereby preserving linguistic diversity in the digital realm.
