Step 1: Determine the UTF-8 encoding bit layout
The character ိ has the Unicode code point U+102D. 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+102D to binary:
00010000 00101101
. 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 10101101

Description
The Unicode character U+102D represents the Myanmar Vowel Sign I (ဝ), which is an essential component of the Myanmar script used in the Burmese language. In digital text, it serves as a vowel marker and plays a critical role in accurately conveying the meaning of words within written content. This character is part of the Unicode Standard, a widely adopted system for encoding, displaying, and exchanging text across various platforms and devices. The Myanmar script, which includes this vowel sign among others, is used by millions of speakers in Myanmar (Burma), making U+102D a crucial element in the preservation and promotion of the country's rich linguistic heritage.
