{{task}}

As described in [[UTF-8]] and in [[wp:UTF-8|Wikipedia]], UTF-8 is a popular encoding of (multi-byte) [[Unicode]] code-points into eight-bit octets.

The goal of this task is to write a encoder that takes a unicode code-point (an integer representing a unicode character) and returns a sequence of 1-4 bytes representing that character in the UTF-8 encoding.

Then you have to write the corresponding decoder that takes a sequence of 1-4 UTF-8 encoded bytes and return the corresponding unicode character.

Demonstrate the functionality of your encoder and decoder on the following five characters:


Character   Name                                  Unicode    UTF-8 encoding (hex)
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------
A           LATIN CAPITAL LETTER A                U+0041     41
ö           LATIN SMALL LETTER O WITH DIAERESIS   U+00F6     C3 B6
Ж           CYRILLIC CAPITAL LETTER ZHE           U+0416     D0 96
€           EURO SIGN                             U+20AC     E2 82 AC
𝄞           MUSICAL SYMBOL G CLEF                 U+1D11E    F0 9D 84 9E

Lingo

Since UTF-8 is Lingo's native string encoding, and UTF-8 strings can be read into byteArrays (and v.v.), such UTF-8 encoding and decoding is built-in.
Relevant Lingo functions are:

  • charToNum (string): converts single-character string to unicode code point (int)
  • numToChar (int): converts unicode code point (int) to single-character string
  • byteArray (string): creates byte array of UTF-8 bytes for string
  • byteArray.toHexString (intStart, intLen): returns hex string representation of byte array (e.g. for printing)
  • byteArray.readRawString (intLen, [strCharSet="UTF-8"]): reads a fixed number of bytes as a string
chars = ["A", "ö", "Ж", "€", "𝄞"]
put "Character   Unicode (int)   UTF-8 (hex)   Decoded"
repeat with c in chars
    ba = bytearray(c)
    put col(c, 12) & col(charToNum(c), 16) & col(ba.toHexString(1, ba.length), 14) & ba.readRawString(ba.length)
end repeat

Helper function for table formatting

on col (val, len)
    str = string(val)
    repeat with i = str.length+1 to len
        put " " after str
    end repeat
    return str
end

The encoding and decoding procedure are kept simple and designed to work with an array of 5 elements for input/output of the UTF-8 encoding for a single code point at a time. It was decided not to use a more elaborate example that would have been able to operate on a buffer to encode/decode more than one code point at a time.

#UTF8_codePointMaxByteCount = 4 ;UTF-8 encoding uses only a maximum of 4 bytes to encode a codepoint

Procedure UTF8_encode(x, Array encoded_codepoint.a(1)) ;x is codepoint to encode, the array will contain output
  ;Array encoded_codepoint() is used for output.
  ;After encode element zero holds the count of significant bytes in elements 1 to 4
  If ArraySize(encoded_codepoint()) < #UTF8_codePointMaxByteCount
    ReDim encoded_codepoint.a(#UTF8_codePointMaxByteCount)

Swift

In Swift there's a difference between UnicodeScalar, which is a single unicode code point, and Character which may consist out of multiple UnicodeScalars, usually because of combining characters.

import Foundation

func encode(_ scalar: UnicodeScalar) -> Data {
  return Data(String(scalar).utf8)
}

func decode(_ data: Data) -> UnicodeScalar? {
  guard let string = String(data: data, encoding: .utf8) else {
    assertionFailure("Failed to convert data to a valid String")
    return nil
  }
  assert(string.unicodeScalars.count == 1, "Data should contain one scalar!")
  return string.unicodeScalars.first
}

for scalar in "AöЖ€𝄞".unicodeScalars {
  let bytes = encode(scalar)
  let formattedBytes = bytes.map({ String($0, radix: 16)}).joined(separator: " ")
  let decoded = decode(bytes)!
  print("character: \(decoded), code point: U+\(String(scalar.value, radix: 16)), \tutf-8: \(formattedBytes)")
}

{{out}}

Tcl

Note: Tcl can handle Unicodes only up to U+FFFD, i.e. the Basic Multilingual Plane (BMP, 16 bits wide). Therefore, the fifth test fails as expected.

proc encoder int {
   set u [format %c $int]
   set bytes {}
   foreach byte [split [encoding convertto utf-8 $u] ""] {
      lappend bytes [format %02X [scan $byte %c]]
   }
   return $bytes
}
proc decoder bytes {
   set str {}
   foreach byte $bytes {
      append str [format %c [scan $byte %x]]
   }
   return [encoding convertfrom utf-8 $str]
}
foreach test {0x0041 0x00f6 0x0416 0x20ac 0x1d11e} {
   set res $test
   lappend res [encoder $test] -> [decoder [encoder $test]]
   puts $res
}

0x0041 41 -> A
0x00f6 {C3 B6} -> ö
0x0416 {D0 96} -> Ж
0x20ac {E2 82 AC} -> €
0x1d11e {EF BF BD} -> �

Alternative Implementation

While perhaps not as readable as the above, this version handles beyond-BMP codepoints by manually composing the utf-8 byte sequences and emitting raw bytes to the console. encoding convertto utf-8 command still does the heavy lifting where it can.

proc utf8 {codepoint} {
    scan $codepoint %llx cp
    if {$cp < 0x10000} {
        set str [subst \\u$codepoint]               ;# substitute per Tcl backslash rule
        set bytes [encoding convertto utf-8 $str]   ;# encode
    } else {                                        ;# codepoints beyond the BMP need manual approach
        set bits [format %021b $cp]                 ;# format as binary string
        set unibits    11110[string range $bits 0 2];# insert extra bits for utf-8 4-byte encoding
        append unibits 10[string range $bits 3 8]
        append unibits 10[string range $bits 9 14]
        append unibits 10[string range $bits 15 20]
        set bytes [binary format B* $unibits]       ;# turn into a sequence of bytes
    }
    return $bytes
}

proc hexchars {s} {
    binary scan $s H* hex
    regsub -all .. $hex {\0 }
}

# for the test, we assume the tty is in utf-8 mode and can handle beyond-BMP chars
# so set output mode to binary so we can write raw bytes!
chan configure stdout -encoding binary
foreach codepoint { 41 F6 416 20AC 1D11E } {
    set utf8 [utf8 $codepoint]
