I need help for my cs50 test question about python on counting characters in a UTF-8 unicode file

They have provided the code for counting the characters in a ASCII file, and they ask us to make modifications

so it can count characters in a UTF-8 unicode File

 

Here is the code, I need help in modifying in to count the characters of UTF-8 file

 

#include <stdbool.h>
#include <stdio.h>
typedef unsigned char BYTE;
int main(int argc, char *argv[])
{
    if (argc != 2)
    {
        printf("Usage: ./count INPUTn");
        return 1;
    }
    FILE *file = fopen(argv[1], "r");
    if (!file)
    {
        printf("Could not open file.n");
        return 1;
    }
    int count = 0;
    while (true)
    {
        BYTE b;
        fread(&b, 1, 1, file);
        if (feof(file))
        {
            break;
        }
        count++;
    }
    printf("Number of characters: %in", count);
}

It would greatly appreciated if you can help me with this.

 

Thank you,
