Step 1: Determine the UTF-8 encoding bit layout
The character has the Unicode code point U+07B6. 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+07B6 to binary:
00000111 10110110. 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:
11011110 10110110

Description
The Unicode character U+07B6 (CHARACTER 07B6) represents the Cyrillic letter YE/YU (У). This character plays a significant role in digital text, primarily within the Russian language and other languages that use the Cyrillic script. In the context of the Russian alphabet, У (U+07B6) is an important letter as it distinguishes between two distinct phonetic sounds - "ye" and "yu". It is essential to understand this distinction for accurate translations and proper communication in these languages. The Cyrillic script originated in the 9th century among the East Slavs, who adapted the Greek uncial script to their language. As such, U+07B6 has a rich cultural and historical context in Slavic-language communities. Today, this character is widely used across various digital platforms for accurate representation of text in these languages.
