You are encouraged to solve this task according to the task description, using any language you may know.
As described in UTF-8 and in 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

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. <lang Tcl>proc encoder int {

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.
<lang Tcl>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]

- 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!
