Step 1: Determine the UTF-8 encoding bit layout
The character ଯ has the Unicode code point U+0B2F. 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+0B2F to binary:
00001011 00101111. 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 10101111

Description
The Unicode character U+0B2F, ORIYA LETTER YA, is a crucial element in the Odia (formerly known as Oriya) script, an Indo-Aryan language predominantly spoken in the Indian state of Odisha. In digital text, this character serves as a fundamental building block for constructing words and phrases in the Odia language. The ORIYA LETTER YA is derived from the Brahmi script and has been evolving since the 7th century AD. As an integral part of the Odia script, it plays a significant role in preserving the cultural and linguistic heritage of the region. Due to the increasing adoption of digital technologies, characters like U+0B2F are essential for ensuring accurate text representation and facilitating seamless communication among native speakers and scholars worldwide.
