Step 1: Determine the UTF-8 encoding bit layout
The character ᕥ has the Unicode code point U+1565. 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+1565 to binary:
00010101 01100101
. 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 10010101 10100101

Description
U+1565 is a character from the Unicode Standard, representing the Canadian Syllabics Thoo (ᒦ). This script, known as Cree, Inuktitut, and other Canadian Aboriginal syllabic scripts, is used primarily in indigenous languages of Canada. The character plays an essential role in digital text, enabling the accurate representation of these languages on screens, websites, and applications. It allows users to read, write, and communicate effectively in their native tongue while preserving cultural identity. While it may not be widely known outside of these communities, U+1565's significance lies in its contribution to the preservation and promotion of diverse linguistic heritage.
