Step 1: Determine the UTF-8 encoding bit layout
The character has the Unicode code point U+0BA5. 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+0BA5 to binary:
00001011 10100101
. 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 10101110 10100101

Description
The Unicode character U+0BA5 holds a significant position in the realm of typography and digital text representation. This character, represented by the code 0BA5 in hexadecimal notation, is primarily associated with the Georgian script, an ancient writing system originating from the region of Kartli in present-day Georgia. Within this script, U+0BA5 symbolizes a specific letter, known as "Tsamguliani," which is utilized to depict various phonetic sounds and values in the Georgian language. U+0BA5's cultural and linguistic importance cannot be overstated, as it contributes to the richness of the Georgian script and its ability to accurately represent a wide range of linguistic nuances. The Georgian script, which dates back to the 5th century AD, is distinct from other writing systems due to its unique orthographic structure and alphabetic composition. This particular character helps preserve the language's heritage and supports effective communication among speakers of the Georgian language in both written and digital formats. In terms of technical context, U+0BA5 is part of the Unicode Standard, which facilitates the accurate representation and exchange of text across various platforms, applications, and devices. This standardization ensures that digital texts remain clear, consistent, and easily understood, regardless of the user's hardware or software configuration. As a result, U+0BA5 serves as an essential element in promoting global communication and information accessibility for speakers of the Georgian language.
