Step 1: Determine the UTF-8 encoding bit layout
The character has the Unicode code point U+0A53. 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+0A53 to binary:
00001010 01010011
. 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 10101001 10010011

Description
U+0A53 is a character from the Unicode standard, specifically belonging to the Arabic Presentation Forms block. It is used in digital text for representing an unmodified form of an Arabic character 'ل', which is pronounced as "LAM", or "l" in English. This character does not have any diacritical marking, and it serves as a base for constructing various forms of the same character with different diacritics. It is commonly used in digital text to display Arabic script, which is widely spoken across many countries in the Middle East and North Africa. In typography, U+0A53 is often employed alongside other characters to create words or sentences in the Arabic language, reflecting its cultural and linguistic significance. The character is also used in technical applications, such as text processing and software development, ensuring accurate representation of the Arabic script across different digital platforms and devices.
