Step 1: Determine the UTF-8 encoding bit layout
The character ೭ has the Unicode code point U+0CED. 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+0CED to binary:
00001100 11101101
. 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 10101101

Description
U+0CED is the Unicode character code for Kannada Digit Seven (ക്), which is a crucial component of the numeral system in the Kannada script. In digital text, it serves as the seventh digit in the Kannada numerals, often used for counting and quantifying purposes. The Kannada script, predominantly spoken in the Indian state of Karnataka, has its roots in the 4th century AD and is part of the Dravidian family of scripts. U+0CED reflects a significant aspect of this language's rich cultural heritage and linguistic identity, as well as its technical implementation in modern computing systems.
