Step 1: Determine the UTF-8 encoding bit layout
The character ೊ has the Unicode code point U+0CCA. 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+0CCA to binary:
00001100 11001010
. 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 10001010

Description
U+0CCA, also known as KANNADA VOWEL SIGN O, plays a pivotal role in the representation of text in digital platforms for the Kannada language. As a part of the Unicode standard, it provides accurate encoding and display of this specific vowel sign. The Kannada script is primarily used to represent the Kannada language spoken predominantly in the Indian state of Karnataka, and by millions of speakers across the globe. Its presence in the digital space ensures that the nuances of the language are preserved for future generations. This Unicode character contributes to the rich linguistic diversity on the internet and digital platforms, thereby enriching our global digital communication landscape.
