Step 1: Determine the UTF-8 encoding bit layout
The character has the Unicode code point U+0B29. 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+0B29 to binary:
00001011 00101001
. 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 10101001

Description
The Unicode character U+0B29 (CHARACTER 0B29) is a unique symbol with specific cultural, linguistic, and technical significance. This particular code point belongs to the Syriac script, which was developed in ancient Mesopotamia around the 1st century AD. The Syriac alphabet, also known as the Estrangela script, has been extensively used in religious texts, particularly within the Christian faith. U+0B29 represents a specific letter or glyph in this script, contributing to the rich history and tradition of written language in the region. In the digital text realm, Unicode characters like U+0B29 play an essential role in ensuring accurate representation and preservation of cultural heritage, as well as supporting modern-day communication and collaboration among speakers of languages that use these scripts. By encoding these symbols, experts can maintain and revive ancient languages while promoting cross-cultural understanding and respect for linguistic diversity.
