Step 1: Determine the UTF-8 encoding bit layout
The character ᔪ has the Unicode code point U+152A. 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+152A to binary:
00010101 00101010. 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 10010100 10101010

Description
The Unicode character U+152A, known as CANADIAN SYLLABICS YO, plays a significant role in digital text by representing a unique character in the Canadian Aboriginal syllabics script. This script is primarily used for written communication among Indigenous peoples of Canada, particularly those residing in the Arctic regions such as the Inuit, Cree, and Ojibwe communities. The character U+152A represents the phonetic value "y" or "yo" in these languages, which is essential for constructing words and phrases within this context. Its inclusion in digital text facilitates the preservation and promotion of Indigenous Canadian culture, language, and identity through written communication. In terms of technical context, U+152A follows the standard Unicode encoding system, ensuring its compatibility across various platforms and devices for accurate representation and proper functioning within digital applications.
