Step 1: Determine the UTF-8 encoding bit layout
The character ᱢ has the Unicode code point U+1C62. 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+1C62 to binary:
00011100 01100010
. 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 10100010

Description
U+1C62, the OL CHIKI LETTER AAM, is a unique character from the Ol Chiki script used in the Santali language of India. The Ol Chiki script, developed by Pandit Ranchihari Ghosh in 1924, has been officially adopted as a means of writing the Santali language. As an alphabetic system with distinct letters and syllables, it facilitates accurate and efficient communication within the Santali-speaking community. The Ol Chiki script is particularly significant for reviving and preserving the linguistic heritage of the indigenous people of India. Therefore, U+1C62 plays a crucial role in digital text by enabling users to type and share content in their native language with ease.
