Step 1: Determine the UTF-8 encoding bit layout
The character ᳖ has the Unicode code point U+1CD6. 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+1CD6 to binary:
00011100 11010110. 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 10010110

Description
The Unicode character U+1CD6 is known as the "VEDIC TONE YAJURVEDIC INDEPENDENT SVARITA." It plays a vital role in digital text by representing an independent vowel sound in the ancient Vedic language, specifically within the Yajurveda recitation tradition. This character is essential for accurate transcription and interpretation of sacred texts and hymns from the Vedas, which are the oldest sacred texts of Hinduism. In the context of Unicode, U+1CD6 helps maintain cultural heritage and facilitate scholarly research on ancient Indian languages. Its inclusion in digital text systems ensures that this unique linguistic feature is preserved and accessible for future generations.
