Step 1: Determine the UTF-8 encoding bit layout
The character ۰ has the Unicode code point U+06F0. In UTF-8, it is encoded using 2 bytes because its codepoint is in the range of
0x0080
to0x07ff
.
Therefore we know that the UTF-8 encoding will be done over 11 bits within the final 16 bits and that it will have the format:110xxxxx 10xxxxxx
Where thex
are 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+06F0 to binary:
00000110 11110000
. 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:
11011011 10110000

Description
U+06F0 is the Extended Arabic-Indic Digit Zero character in Unicode, a comprehensive encoding standard that represents characters from all known writing systems. This digit is often used in digital text to represent the numerical value of zero within the context of Arabic or other similar scripts. In typography, it plays an essential role in ensuring accurate and legible representation of numeric data in documents and digital media. While its usage may not be as widespread in English texts, it holds significant cultural, linguistic, and technical importance for languages that rely on this digit's unique shape to differentiate between zero and other characters.
