Step 1: Determine the UTF-8 encoding bit layout
The character ୠ has the Unicode code point U+0B60. 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+0B60 to binary:
00001011 01100000
. 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 10101101 10100000

Description
U+0B60 is the Unicode character code for 'Oriya Letter Vocalic RR' (ୠ), a character used in the Oriya script. The Oriya script is primarily used for writing the Odia language, which is the official language of the Indian state of Odisha and is also spoken in parts of West Bengal and Andhra Pradesh. In digital text, U+0B60 serves as a phonetic symbol that represents the sound /r/ when used in conjunction with consonants. This character plays a crucial role in accurately representing the sounds and pronunciation of words in Oriya language. The use of U+0B60 contributes to preserving and promoting the cultural heritage of the Oriya-speaking communities by facilitating the accurate digital representation of their language.
