Step 1: Determine the UTF-8 encoding bit layout
The character ൯ has the Unicode code point U+0D6F. 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+0D6F to binary:
00001101 01101111. 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 10110101 10101111

Description
The Unicode character U+0D6F represents the Malayalam digit nine in digital text. This numeric digit, like other digits in the Malayalam script, is used primarily within the Indian language of Malayalam for numerical representation and counting purposes. As part of the Malayalam script, which is the first among the Dravidian languages to have a complete set of alphabetical characters, the digit nine plays a crucial role in the written language. The character's unique design reflects its cultural and linguistic context, providing a distinct visual representation for this specific number in the Malayalam language. U+0D6F contributes to the overall readability and comprehension of text within the Malayalam script, enabling effective communication in digital platforms that support Unicode encoding.
