Step 1: Determine the UTF-8 encoding bit layout
The character has the Unicode code point U+1311. 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+1311 to binary:
00010011 00010001
. 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:
11100001 10001100 10010001

Description
The Unicode character U+1311 is a typographical symbol that represents the number 0, specifically within the Khmer script. Khmer is the official language of Cambodia and is primarily spoken by the Khmer people, who reside in Cambodia, as well as in some parts of Thailand, Laos, Vietnam, and other neighboring countries. In digital text, this character can be found in various applications such as word processors, text editors, or any software that supports Unicode input. Its role is vital for accurate representation of the Khmer script, which relies on its unique numeral forms to distinguish it from other Southeast Asian scripts like Thai and Lao. In cultural, linguistic, and technical contexts, U+1311 plays a significant part in preserving and promoting the Khmer language and heritage by enabling accurate digital representation of Khmer text.
