Step 1: Determine the UTF-8 encoding bit layout
The character ௮ has the Unicode code point U+0BEE. 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+0BEE to binary:
00001011 11101110. 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 10101110

Description
The Tamil script is one of the oldest known scripts globally, dating back to around 200 BCE. Tamil Digit Eight (U+0BEE) is a crucial part of this ancient writing system, specifically used in digital text for numeric representation. As a member of the Tamil script family, U+0BEE is critical in Tamil language communication and literature, serving as a building block for written expression. The Tamil language has a profound cultural and historical significance in South India, particularly in the state of Tamil Nadu. The Tamil script consists of a unique set of characters that are used to represent both consonants and vowels, enabling the creation of numerous words and phrases that reflect the diverse linguistic landscape of the region. U+0BEE plays an essential role in preserving and promoting the heritage and identity of the Tamil-speaking communities worldwide.
