Step 1: Determine the UTF-8 encoding bit layout
The character ॸ has the Unicode code point U+0978. 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+0978 to binary:
00001001 01111000
. 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 10100101 10111000

Description
U+0978 is a Devanagari letter called 'MARWARI DDA' in the Unicode character set. This character is primarily used in digital text to represent a specific sound or phoneme within the Marwari language, which is predominantly spoken in the Indian states of Rajasthan and Gujarat. The Marwari script is derived from the Devanagari script, but has evolved to include unique letters and characters such as U+0978 to represent distinct phonetic values specific to the Marwari language. Its usage plays a vital role in preserving and promoting the linguistic heritage of the Marwari community.
