Step 1: Determine the UTF-8 encoding bit layout
The character ટ has the Unicode code point U+0A9F. 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+0A9F to binary:
00001010 10011111
. 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 10101010 10011111

Description
The Unicode character U+0A9F represents the Gujarati letter "Tta" (ટ્ટા). In digital text, this character serves as a fundamental building block for encoding written content in the Gujarati script, which is primarily used to write the Gujarati language. The Gujarati script is an abugida writing system that evolved from the Brahmi script and has been widely employed in India, particularly in the state of Gujarat. U+0A9F plays a crucial role in preserving the linguistic heritage of the Gujarati-speaking community by enabling accurate representation of their language on digital platforms. The character is also vital for computerized text processing, translation, and linguistic research applications, thus contributing to cultural diversity and understanding of regional languages globally.
