Step 1: Determine the UTF-8 encoding bit layout
The character ១ has the Unicode code point U+17E1. 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+17E1 to binary:
00010111 11100001
. 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:
11100001 10011111 10100001

Description
U+17E1 is the Unicode character code for "Khmer Digit One," which is an integral part of the Khmer numeral system. This digit represents the number one in the script used primarily by the Khmer people, who reside in Cambodia and some neighboring countries. The Khmer script, also known as Angkor or Pallava, dates back to the 5th century AD and has been used for various religious texts, administrative documents, and modern digital communication. In the context of the Khmer numeral system, U+17E1 facilitates counting and arithmetic operations in the Cambodian language. Its role in digital text allows for accurate translations and better accessibility to information in the Khmer language on the internet and electronic devices.
