Step 1: Determine the UTF-8 encoding bit layout
The character ॄ has the Unicode code point U+0944. 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+0944 to binary:
00001001 01000100
. 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 10000100

Description
The Unicode character U+0944, or DEVANAGARI VOWEL SIGN VOCALIC RR, is a vital component in the Devanagari script, which is predominantly used for writing Hindi and several other Indo-Aryan languages. In digital text, this character serves as a diacritic, modifying the sound of a base consonant to create a new phoneme or syllable when combined with a consonant in a script. U+0944 is an essential element for accurate representation of these languages in digital media, facilitating proper communication and information sharing among speakers of these languages. While its primary function is linguistic, it also contributes to cultural preservation and fosters the growth and understanding of Indo-Aryan language communities worldwide.
