Step 1: Determine the UTF-8 encoding bit layout
The character ଲ has the Unicode code point U+0B32. 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+0B32 to binary:
00001011 00110010
. 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 10110010

Description
The Unicode character U+0B32 represents the Oriya Letter "LA" in digital text. This letter is an essential component of the Odia (Oriya) language, which is predominantly spoken in the eastern Indian state of Odisha. Oriya, also known as Odia, belongs to the Indo-Aryan branch of the Indo-European family of languages and has its own unique script called the Oriya Script or Odia Script. This script, along with U+0B32 character "LA", enables the accurate representation of the Oriya language's rich linguistic heritage in digital format. The Oriya script is a synthesis of the Dravidian and Sanskrit scripts and comprises 15 vowel sounds and 41 consonant sounds, making it an important aspect of Odisha's cultural identity. U+0B32, or "LA", plays a crucial role in the accurate representation of the Oriya language, ensuring its preservation and accessibility for future generations.
