Step 1: Determine the UTF-8 encoding bit layout
The character ఙ has the Unicode code point U+0C19. 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+0C19 to binary:
00001100 00011001
. 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 10011001
TELUGU LETTER NGA·U+0C19

Description
U+0C19 is a character from the Telugu script, a Dravidian language predominantly spoken by the Telugu people of the Indian states Andhra Pradesh, Telangana, and Yanam Puducherry. The character represents 'NGA' in the Telugu alphabet. In digital text, it plays a vital role in maintaining linguistic accuracy, as it is essential for accurate translation and representation of Telugu language texts. As Telugu is a classical language with a rich literary tradition, the use of U+0C19 reflects its cultural importance and historical continuity. The character is part of the Unicode Standard, which aims to provide a unique code for every character, symbol or graphical emblem. This standardization ensures that digital texts can be consistently displayed and processed across various platforms and devices, promoting inclusivity and accessibility in the global digital landscape.
