Step 1: Determine the UTF-8 encoding bit layout
The character ఆ has the Unicode code point U+0C06. 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+0C06 to binary:
00001100 00000110. 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 10110000 10000110

Description
The Unicode character U+0C06, known as the "Telugu Letter AA," holds a significant position within the realm of typography and digital text. In its typical usage, this character is employed in the Telugu script, which is predominantly used for writing in the Telugu language, spoken primarily in the Indian states of Andhra Pradesh and Telangana, as well as by Telugu-speaking communities around the world. The Telugu script is a highly sophisticated and ancient Indic script, dating back to at least the 10th century CE, and it consists of 65 basic letters or phonemes. U+0C06 contributes to the richness and diversity of this script by representing a specific phoneme or sound in Telugu. While its usage is primarily cultural and linguistic in nature, its accurate representation within digital text is essential for maintaining the integrity of Telugu language communication on electronic platforms and devices, thereby preserving the cultural heritage and knowledge of the Telugu-speaking communities.
