Step 1: Determine the UTF-8 encoding bit layout
The character ৢ has the Unicode code point U+09E2. 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+09E2 to binary:
00001001 11100010
. 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 10100010

Description
U+09E2 is a Bengali vowel sign known as VOCALIC L. This character plays a pivotal role in the digital representation of the Bengali language, which is predominantly spoken in Bangladesh and the Indian state of West Bengal. The character's primary function is to represent the vocalic sounds 'a,' 'i,' or 'u' depending on its position and usage within words. VOCALIC L, like other characters in the Unicode standard, ensures accurate digital text representation, preserving the linguistic integrity of the written Bengali language. This contributes significantly to the efficient communication and cultural exchange between Bengali speakers worldwide.
