Step 1: Determine the UTF-8 encoding bit layout
The character ଝ has the Unicode code point U+0B1D. 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+0B1D to binary:
00001011 00011101
. 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 10011101
ORIYA LETTER JHA·U+0B1D

Description
U+0B1D is a Unicode character, specifically designated as ORIYA LETTER JHA. The Oriya script, also known as the Odiya script, is an abugida (a writing system in which each consonant letter has an inherent vowel sound) used for the Odia language spoken in the Indian states of Orissa and by some communities in neighboring regions. U+0B1D, ORIYA LETTER JHA, is a key element within this script, representing a distinct phoneme or speech sound in the Oriya language. In digital text, U+0B1D is utilized to convey and preserve the accurate linguistic structure of Oriya texts, thereby ensuring that online content remains comprehensible and faithful to the original intent of its creators. By incorporating this essential Unicode character, digital platforms can support diverse cultural and linguistic contexts, facilitating global communication and the preservation of unique literary traditions.
