Step 1: Determine the UTF-8 encoding bit layout
The character has the Unicode code point U+1CFC. 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+1CFC to binary:
00011100 11111100. 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 10110011 10111100

Description
The Unicode character U+1CFC, known as CHARACTER 1CFC, holds a unique position in the world of typography. This particular character is an uppercase letter derived from the Tifinagh script, which is used predominantly by Berber-speaking communities in North Africa, particularly in the Sahara region. In its typical usage within digital text, CHARACTER 1CFC may serve as part of a proper name or identifier that incorporates Tifinagh characters. It's important to note that this character carries cultural significance and represents the linguistic diversity found throughout various regions of our world. Although it may not be commonly used outside of specific communities, its presence in Unicode ensures accurate representation and preservation of these unique scripts for future generations.
