Step 1: Determine the UTF-8 encoding bit layout
The character has the Unicode code point U+10CB. 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+10CB to binary:
00010000 11001011
. 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 10000011 10001011

Description
U+10CB is a character from the Unicode standard, which represents a wide range of characters used across multiple languages, symbols, and scripts. In the case of U+10CB, it signifies an important element in digital text - the "Right-to-Left Override" (RLO) control character. This character is crucial in typography for determining the directionality of text, particularly when dealing with right-to-left (RTL) languages such as Hebrew, Arabic, or Persian. The RLO character helps ensure that text displays correctly on digital platforms by overriding the default left-to-right direction, allowing users to create visually appealing and contextually accurate content in various languages.
