Step 1: Determine the UTF-8 encoding bit layout
The character ೞ has the Unicode code point U+0CDE. 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+0CDE to binary:
00001100 11011110. 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 10011110

Description
The Unicode character U+0CDE represents the Kannada letter "FA" (KANNADA LETTER FA), which is part of the Kannada script used for writing the Kannada language, primarily spoken in the Indian state of Karnataka and parts of Kerala. In digital text, this character serves a crucial role by enabling accurate representation of the Kannada script online, facilitating communication and preserving linguistic heritage. Kannada, classified as a Dravidian language, is one of the 22 scheduled languages of India and has its roots in ancient South Indian history. The Kannada script, which dates back to the 5th century CE, comprises 48 phonemic letters or consonants, each with an inherent vowel sound, leading to a rich phonetic system. U+0CDE contributes to this expressive typography, promoting cultural appreciation and linguistic understanding for speakers of Kannada and those interested in the diverse aspects of world languages.
