Step 1: Determine the UTF-8 encoding bit layout
The character ব has the Unicode code point U+09AC. 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+09AC to binary:
00001001 10101100. 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 10100110 10101100

Description
The Unicode character U+09AC represents the Bengali letter "Ba" (ব). In digital texts, it is used as a basic component for creating words in the Bengali language. This script, known as Bangla, belongs to the Indo-Aryan branch of the Indo-European language family and is predominantly spoken in Bangladesh and the Indian states of West Bengal, Tripura, and Assam. The Bengali alphabet comprises 17 vowels and 36 consonants, including "Ba", and is written from left to right in a cursive style. While there are different styles of writing the Bengali script, such as Nastaliq (persianized), Devanagari-influenced, and Bengalic, they all share the same set of characters. U+09AC plays a crucial role in digital communication and preserving cultural identity for Bengali speakers worldwide.
