Step 1: Determine the UTF-8 encoding bit layout
The character has the Unicode code point U+09D9. 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+09D9 to binary:
00001001 11011001
. 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 10011001

Description
The Unicode character U+09D9 (CHARACTER 09D9) is an essential part of the Devanagari script used in digital text processing. It primarily represents a specific consonant phoneme in several Indian languages such as Hindi, Marathi, and Nepali. The Devanagari script is widely utilized to write these languages, which are spoken by millions of people across South Asia. This script follows a syllabic structure, where each character typically represents a consonant-vowel pair, making it easy to read and understand. In the context of digital text processing, U+09D9 plays a significant role in enabling accurate and efficient handling of Devanagari text, which has become increasingly important due to the rapid growth of internet usage and digital communication in South Asia. As a result, the correct encoding and representation of characters like U+09D9 is vital for ensuring clear and precise communication across different platforms and devices.
