Step 1: Determine the UTF-8 encoding bit layout
The character has the Unicode code point U+0B97. 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+0B97 to binary:
00001011 10010111
. 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 10101110 10010111

Description
The Unicode character U+0B97 represents the Cyrillic letter "Ye" (Й), which is primarily used in the Russian language. This letter holds a significant role in digital text, as it helps maintain the linguistic integrity of Russian documents and supports communication in the Russian language across various platforms and applications. The Cyrillic script, including the letter "Ye," has a rich history dating back to the 9th century and is widely used in regions where Russian is spoken, such as Russia, Belarus, Kazakhstan, and Kyrgyzstan. U+0B97 plays an essential part in preserving the cultural identity of these communities by enabling accurate representation of their language in digital format. Its correct use contributes to the global understanding and appreciation of diverse linguistic and cultural contexts.
