Step 1: Determine the UTF-8 encoding bit layout
The character ᭒ has the Unicode code point U+1B52. In UTF-8, it is encoded using 3 bytes because its codepoint is in the range of
0x0800
to0xffff
.
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 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+1B52 to binary:
00011011 01010010
. 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 10101101 10010010

Description
The Unicode character U+1B52, known as Balinese Digit Two, is a numeric symbol primarily used in the Balinese script system. It represents the value '2' in the numeral system commonly employed in Indonesia. In digital text, it serves as a substitute for the Latin-1 Supplement character '2', allowing for seamless integration of Balinese numerals within various software applications and systems. Although it is primarily used in Balinese language contexts, its utilization extends to other Indonesian languages and cultural groups, where it plays a role in preserving linguistic heritage and promoting regional identity. The inclusion of the Balinese Digit Two in the Unicode Standard underscores the importance of maintaining diverse typographic traditions and facilitating global communication across cultures.
