Step 1: Determine the UTF-8 encoding bit layout
The character has the Unicode code point U+0CF0. 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+0CF0 to binary:
00001100 11110000
. 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 10110011 10110000

Description
U+0CF0 is a special character in Unicode, the standard for encoding characters in digital text. Specifically, it represents the character "ࣰ", which is used as a non-spacing mark in certain scripts such as Devanagari. In this context, the character often serves to modify the shape or position of base characters, playing an essential role in typography and accurate representation of text in the Devanagari script. The Unicode code point 0CF0 is primarily used in Indian languages, with its use being predominantly observed in languages like Hindi, Marathi, and several others. This character helps maintain linguistic accuracy and supports a wide range of cultural and regional expressions within digital text, showcasing the richness and diversity of these languages globally.
