Step 1: Determine the UTF-8 encoding bit layout
The character ৺ has the Unicode code point U+09FA. In UTF-8, it is encoded using 3 bytes because its codepoint is in the range of
0x0800to0xffff.
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 thexare 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+09FA to binary:
00001001 11111010. 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:
11100000 10100111 10111010

Description
The Unicode character U+09FA, known as Bengali Issar, holds a significant position in the digital representation of the Bengali language. In its typical usage, it serves as a conjunct consonant in the Gurmukhi script and is used to denote the sound /ʃ/ or an unaspirated 'sh' sound. The character carries immense cultural importance as the Bengali Issar is prevalent within the context of the Gurmukhi script, which predominantly serves the Punjabi language. This script is not only used in written communication but also features prominently in religious texts and ceremonies. Its accurate digital representation via Unicode ensures the preservation and promotion of these culturally rich scripts in the modern digital realm.
