Step 1: Determine the UTF-8 encoding bit layout
The character ൚ has the Unicode code point U+0D5A. 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+0D5A to binary:
00001101 01011010
. 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 10011010

Description
U+0D5A is the Unicode code point for Malayalam Fraction Three Eighthieths. In digital text, this character is used to represent a specific mathematical fraction within the Malayalam script. The character plays a vital role in representing mathematical concepts accurately and precisely in the Malayalam language. This character's primary usage lies in the domain of education, where it serves as a tool for teaching and learning mathematical fractions in the context of the Malayalam language. It is important to note that the usage of this character is specific to the Malayalam script and is not commonly used in other languages or scripts due to its unique requirements for accurate representation of fraction values in the context of the Malayalam numerical system.
