Step 1: Determine the UTF-8 encoding bit layout
The character has the Unicode code point U+0BCE. 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+0BCE to binary:
00001011 11001110. 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 10101111 10001110

Description
The Unicode character U+0BCE holds a significant position in the world of digital typography. It is part of the Ethiopic Extended script, which is primarily used for writing Amharic, an Afro-Asiatic language spoken mainly in Ethiopia and Eritrea. In this context, the character U+0BCE represents the consonant 'd' in the Ethiopic script. Its typical usage in digital text includes the rendering of text written in Amharic, allowing for accurate representation and transmission of the language on various platforms. The character is crucial for preserving cultural identity and facilitating communication among speakers of Amharic in the global digital space. As an essential component of the Ethiopic Extended script, U+0BCE plays a vital role in maintaining linguistic diversity and promoting cross-cultural understanding online.
