Step 1: Determine the UTF-8 encoding bit layout
The character ᬝ has the Unicode code point U+1B1D. 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+1B1D to binary:
00011011 00011101
. 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 10101100 10011101

Description
U+1B1D is a Balinese letter known as "Ta Latik". It plays a significant role in the digital representation of the Balinese language, which primarily spoken in the Indonesian province of Bali. This Unicode character is an essential component of the Latin-based script used for writing Balinese. The Ta Latik, along with other Balinese letters, helps to maintain cultural identity and facilitates communication among native speakers. Its use in digital text ensures the accurate representation of traditional Balinese texts, fostering a deeper understanding of the language's rich history and literature. As an integral part of the Latin-based script for Balinese, U+1B1D contributes to preserving and promoting this unique linguistic culture in the global digital landscape.
