Step 1: Determine the UTF-8 encoding bit layout
The character has the Unicode code point U+09B1. 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+09B1 to binary:
00001001 10110001
. 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 10110001

Description
U+09B1 is a character in the Unicode Standard, specifically belonging to the Devanagari script block. It represents the consonant "ठ" (ṭha) with an extra horizontal stroke at its right side, known as "झ" (ḍa). This character is commonly used in digital text within the Devanagari script, which is primarily used for writing the Hindi and Marathi languages. In addition to its role in written text, U+09B1 also plays an essential part in various linguistic and cultural contexts, such as literature, historical texts, and religious scriptures in these languages. The character's distinctive shape is derived from the ancient Brahmi script, which was used for writing Sanskrit, the classical language of India.
