Step 1: Determine the UTF-8 encoding bit layout
The character ଶ has the Unicode code point U+0B36. 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+0B36 to binary:
00001011 00110110. 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 10110110

Description
The Unicode character U+0B36, known as ORIYA LETTER SHA, plays a significant role in the Oriya language, which is predominantly spoken in the Indian state of Odisha. It is part of the Bengali script family and serves as one of the 48 pure vowels or conjuncts in the Oriya alphabet. In digital text, it carries out its typical usage by representing the 'A' sound in the Oriya language. U+0B36 is used to maintain linguistic accuracy and cultural authenticity when rendering texts in Oriya on digital platforms, including websites, applications, and documents. By incorporating this character and other Unicode values, developers and content creators can ensure that texts are displayed correctly and preserve the integrity of the Oriya language's phonetic structure.
