Step 1: Determine the UTF-8 encoding bit layout
The character ু has the Unicode code point U+09C1. 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+09C1 to binary:
00001001 11000001. 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 10000001

Description
The Unicode character U+09C1 represents the Bengali Vowel Sign U (ব). In digital text, it serves a crucial role in accurately representing vowels in the Bengali language. The Bengali script is written from left to right and forms part of the Indo-Aryan branch of the Indo-European language family. This character is important for the accurate transcribing and transliteration of texts in Bengali, which is spoken by millions of people, primarily in the regions of Bangladesh and West Bengal, India. The Bengali script itself is a member of the Brahmic family of scripts that also includes Devanagari, Gurmukhi, and Gujarati. It's worth noting that the accuracy of this character and its usage in digital text is essential for maintaining linguistic integrity and cultural authenticity in online communication and documentation.
