Step 1: Determine the UTF-8 encoding bit layout
The character has the Unicode code point U+1739. 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+1739 to binary:
00010111 00111001. 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 10011100 10111001

Description
U+1739 is a unique Unicode character that holds a significant role in digital typography. It represents the character 'ᴐ', which falls under the category of Modifier Letters. This character is primarily used as a diacritical mark, meaning it alters the sound or pronunciation of another character it modifies. Specifically, it is employed to modify uppercase Latin letters by lowering their vertical position, effectively changing their appearance without altering their numerical value. This can be seen in certain scripts and typographical styles where such modifications are needed for visual or cultural reasons. However, its usage is quite limited due to the less common requirements of such modifications in modern-day digital text. Despite this, U+1739 remains an important character for those working with specific linguistic and typographical contexts that demand this kind of diacritical mark.
