Step 1: Determine the UTF-8 encoding bit layout
The character ब has the Unicode code point U+092C. 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+092C to binary:
00001001 00101100
. 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 10100100 10101100

Description
U+092C is the Unicode code point for Devanagari Letter Ba (ᳪ), a character from the Devanagari script used in digital text representation. In Devanagari, a script predominantly used for writing Hindi and several other Indian languages, each character has a distinct shape and plays an important role in conveying meaning. The Devanagari script is widely used in South Asia and among Indian diaspora communities, making U+092C significant in the representation of various Indian languages online. This character, like others in the Devanagari script, helps maintain linguistic integrity when translating written materials between different digital formats or platforms. The accurate encoding of characters such as U+092C ensures proper display and readability, while also preserving cultural heritage and promoting multilingualism in the digital realm.
