Step 1: Determine the UTF-8 encoding bit layout
The character has the Unicode code point U+0B04. 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+0B04 to binary:
00001011 00000100. 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:
11100000 10101100 10000100

Description
U+0B04 is a character code point within the Ethiopic script. It represents the letter 'käf' (က), which holds an essential role in the digital text representation of Amharic, one of the two official languages of Ethiopia and Eritrea. The Ethiopic script, also known as Ge'ez or Fidel script, is an abugida writing system that has been in use for more than 2,000 years. U+0B04 (CHARACTER 0B04) contributes to the unique cultural and linguistic heritage of these countries by enabling digital communication in the Amharic language, which is widely spoken by millions of people across Ethiopia and Eritrea. In text encoding, Unicode provides a standardized way for computers to understand and process text data from various languages, thereby enhancing global communication and information exchange. As an expert in Unicode and typography, it is crucial to appreciate the significance of each character code point like U+0B04 in preserving linguistic diversity and ensuring accurate digital text representation across cultures.
