Step 1: Determine the UTF-8 encoding bit layout
The character has the Unicode code point U+181C. 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+181C to binary:
00011000 00011100. 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 10100000 10011100

Description
U+181C is a rare and obscure Unicode character, typically used for representing the numeral in the Cherokee script. This particular numeral is part of a complex writing system that utilizes both logographic and syllabic elements, which has been utilized by the Cherokee people for centuries. The Cherokee script, including U+181C, was developed by Sequoyah in the early 19th century as a means to write down the Cherokee language, enabling its preservation and transmission. Although the Cherokee language is not widely spoken today, efforts are being made to revitalize it and maintain this unique cultural heritage. In digital text, U+181C serves an important function in accurately representing this numeral within the context of the Cherokee script, contributing to the preservation and promotion of the rich linguistic and cultural history associated with it.
