Step 1: Determine the UTF-8 encoding bit layout
The character ᥅ has the Unicode code point U+1945. 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+1945 to binary:
00011001 01000101. 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 10100101 10000101

Description
The Unicode character U+1945 represents the Limbu Question Mark (ऋ) in digital text. It is primarily used within the Limbu script, which is spoken by the Limbu ethnic group in Eastern Nepal. In this context, the Limbu Question Mark serves as a typical punctuation mark, employed to indicate questioning or uncertainty in written communication. The Limbu script, like other scripts based on the Tibetan system of writing, uses a unique set of characters that are distinct from the more commonly known Indian subcontinent scripts such as Devanagari, Gurmukhi, and Bengali. Consequently, U+1945's inclusion in the Unicode Standard supports the digital representation and exchange of texts written in various ethnic and regional languages worldwide.
