Step 1: Determine the UTF-8 encoding bit layout
The character ં has the Unicode code point U+0A82. In UTF-8, it is encoded using 3 bytes because its codepoint is in the range of
0x0800to0xffff.
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 thexare 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+0A82 to binary:
00001010 10000010. 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 10000010

Description
U+0A82 is a Gujarati sign called "Anusvara." In the context of digital text, it serves as an important diacritical mark in the Gujarati script, which is primarily used to write the Gujarati language. The Anusvara (અ) is typically appended to consonants and denotes a nasalized sound in the spoken language. It is essential for accurate pronunciation and correct interpretation of words when reading or writing in Gujarati. This character holds significant cultural, linguistic, and technical importance, as it contributes to preserving the rich heritage of the Gujarati language, which is widely spoken in the Indian state of Gujarat and by Gujarati-speaking communities worldwide.
