Step 1: Determine the UTF-8 encoding bit layout
The character has the Unicode code point U+1757. 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+1757 to binary:
00010111 01010111. 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 10011101 10010111

Description
U+1757, or CHARACTER 1757, is a unique character within the Unicode standard. Its primary role in digital text lies in its representation of the Cyrillic capital letter ZHE with descender, a letter commonly used in various Slavic languages such as Russian, Bulgarian, and Serbian. This specific character variation distinguishes itself by featuring a descending tail below the baseline, adding aesthetic and typographic nuance to written texts. Despite its relatively low usage frequency compared to other letters, U+1757 carries significant cultural and linguistic importance, particularly within the Slavic-speaking world. Its inclusion in the Unicode standard ensures accurate digital representation of these languages, promoting literacy and preserving cultural heritage. Technically speaking, CHARACTER 1757 is part of the Cyrillic script block (U+0400 to U+04FF), which encompasses 64 characters in total. As a descendant of the Glagolitic alphabet, the Cyrillic script has played an essential role in various Slavic languages for centuries, further emphasizing the historical and linguistic significance of U+1757 within the context of Unicode typography.
