Step 1: Determine the UTF-8 encoding bit layout
The character ᱐ has the Unicode code point U+1C50. 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+1C50 to binary:
00011100 01010000. 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 10110001 10010000

Description
The Unicode character U+1C50 represents the OL CHIKI DIGIT ZERO. This digit is used in digital texts within the Ol Chiki script, which is an abugida writing system primarily employed for the Santali language, spoken by the indigenous Santal people of India and Bangladesh. The Ol Chiki script was developed by Dr. Ranchhodrao Bajpai in 1956 to standardize the various dialects of the Santali language. U+1C50, or OL CHIKI DIGIT ZERO, is a crucial component of this script, as it allows for the representation and calculation of numerical values within text. Its accurate depiction is vital for preserving cultural heritage and facilitating communication among the Santal community.
