Step 1: Determine the UTF-8 encoding bit layout
The character ܵ has the Unicode code point U+0735. In UTF-8, it is encoded using 2 bytes because its codepoint is in the range of
0x0080to0x07ff.
Therefore we know that the UTF-8 encoding will be done over 11 bits within the final 16 bits and that it will have the format:110xxxxx 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+0735 to binary:
00000111 00110101. 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:
11011100 10110101

Description
U+0735, also known as SYRIAC ZQAPHA DOTTED, is a unique character within the Unicode Standard, primarily used in digital text for representing the Syriac letter Qaḑā, or Qoph, in its dotted form. The Syriac script is a member of the Aramaic language family and has historical and cultural significance, as it was widely used in the writing of Old Testament texts and early Christian literature. Its usage extends to modern times in the Assyrian and Syriac communities for religious, cultural, and scholarly purposes. In digital text, U+0735 serves an important role in preserving and promoting the heritage of these languages, facilitating accurate representation and communication within and across different cultures and linguistic traditions.
