Step 1: Determine the UTF-8 encoding bit layout
The character ᱟ has the Unicode code point U+1C5F. 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+1C5F to binary:
00011100 01011111. 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 10011111

Description
U+1C5F is a typographical character representing the Ol Chiki letter "Laa." This script is used primarily for writing the Scheduled Tribes of Odisha language in India. The Ol Chiki script was developed by Pandit Hare Krishna Satyaprakash, an Indian linguist and education reformer, as a means to promote literacy among tribal communities. U+1C5F is utilized in digital text to accurately represent the phonetic values of the language, enabling communication and preservation of cultural heritage within these communities. The Ol Chiki script is part of the Unicode Standard, which ensures consistent representation and encoding of text across different platforms and devices.
