Step 1: Determine the UTF-8 encoding bit layout
The character ႁ has the Unicode code point U+1081. 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+1081 to binary:
00010000 10000001. 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 10000010 10000001

Description
The Unicode character U+1081 represents the Myanmar letter Shan HA. In digital text, it serves as a fundamental component of the Myanmar script, which is primarily used in Myanmar (Burma) for written communication. The Shan language, from which this letter originates, is spoken by the Shan people, an ethnic group native to the Southeast Asian region. U+1081 contributes to the cultural and linguistic diversity of the world by enabling digital representation of the Shan script. In terms of technical context, it's part of the Myanmar block of Unicode characters, which includes 27 letters, 34 digits, 19 punctuation marks, 1,051 diacritical marks and modifiers, as well as a variety of symbols used in written Burmese. This ensures accurate digital representation of text for both native speakers and researchers studying the Shan language.
