Step 1: Determine the UTF-8 encoding bit layout
The character ୁ has the Unicode code point U+0B41. 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+0B41 to binary:
00001011 01000001
. 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 10000001

Description
U+0B41 is a Unicode character representing the Oriya Vowel Sign 'U'. This character plays an essential role in digital text by representing the 'u' sound in the Oriya script, which is primarily used for writing the Oriya language, also known as Odia, spoken predominantly in the Indian state of Odisha. The Oriya script belongs to the Brahmi family of scripts and has been widely used since the 12th century for religious texts and literature. In digital text, U+0B41 is employed to accurately represent the unique pronunciation and phonetics of the Oriya language, facilitating seamless communication among native speakers and preserving their cultural heritage in the realm of technology.
