Step 1: Determine the UTF-8 encoding bit layout
The character ဂ has the Unicode code point U+1002. 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+1002 to binary:
00010000 00000010. 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 10000000 10000010

Description
The Unicode character U+1002 represents the Myanmar letter "Ga" (ဂ), which is an essential element in the Myanmar script. This script is predominantly used for writing the Burmese language, an Indo-Ayar language spoken primarily in Myanmar, also known as Burma. As part of the Myanmar script, U+1002 plays a vital role in digital text by enabling accurate representation and communication of the Burmese language on electronic devices and platforms. In terms of cultural significance, the Myanmar script is deeply rooted in the rich history and heritage of Myanmar, with its origins tracing back to ancient times. By providing a clear and precise encoding for this character, Unicode supports the preservation and dissemination of the Burmese language and culture in the digital realm.
