Step 1: Determine the UTF-8 encoding bit layout
The character ఖ has the Unicode code point U+0C16. 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+0C16 to binary:
00001100 00010110
. 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 10010110

Description
U+0C16, the Telugu Letter Ka (క), is a character from the Telugu script, which is primarily used for writing the Telugu language. This language is predominantly spoken in Andhra Pradesh and Telangana states in India by over 75 million people. The Telugu script is an abugida system where each letter has an inherent consonant and an associated vowel sound. In digital text, U+0C16 typically serves as a single unit representing the consonant "K" along with an inherent vowel "a". This character plays a crucial role in preserving the linguistic identity of Telugu speakers worldwide by allowing accurate representation and communication of their language in digital platforms.
