Step 1: Determine the UTF-8 encoding bit layout
The character ౘ has the Unicode code point U+0C58. 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+0C58 to binary:
00001100 01011000. 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 10110001 10011000

Description
The Unicode character U+0C58 represents the Telugu letter "అ" (Telugu Letter Tsadha), which is a significant symbol in the Telugu script. This script is widely used in the Indian state of Andhra Pradesh and Telangana, as well as among the Telugu-speaking population worldwide. In digital text, U+0C58 serves as an essential component for encoding written content in the Telugu language, enabling accurate representation and transmission of information across various platforms and devices. The Telugu script, which belongs to the Dravidian family of languages, has a rich history spanning over a thousand years. Telugu literature is renowned for its classical works, including poetry, drama, and folklore, with some texts dating back to the 11th century. U+0C58, as part of this script, plays a crucial role in preserving and promoting the linguistic heritage and cultural identity of the Telugu-speaking community. In terms of technical context, Unicode is an essential encoding standard that allows for the consistent representation of text across different languages and platforms. U+0C58's inclusion in the Unicode Standard ensures compatibility with various software applications, enabling seamless communication among users who speak or write in Telugu or engage with content from this linguistic tradition.
