Step 1: Determine the UTF-8 encoding bit layout
The character య has the Unicode code point U+0C2F. 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+0C2F to binary:
00001100 00101111
. 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 10101111

Description
The Unicode character U+0C2F, or Telugu Letter Ya, plays a vital role in the Telugu script, which is primarily used for writing the Telugu language spoken by millions of people in India and across the world. As a part of the digital text, it allows seamless communication between speakers of this language, enabling the preservation and propagation of their rich cultural heritage and literature. The Telugu script is an abugida system, where each letter represents both a consonant and an inherent vowel (usually 'a'). In the case of the Telugu Letter Ya, it is used as a consonant with the inherent vowel being 'i'. It also has a unique position in the Telugu orthography, as it can form a digraph with the following letter, producing a distinct sound. This precise representation of linguistic nuances in digital text showcases the power and flexibility of Unicode, which facilitates accurate communication across diverse languages and scripts.
