Step 1: Determine the UTF-8 encoding bit layout
The character has the Unicode code point U+0E7E. 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+0E7E to binary:
00001110 01111110. 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 10111001 10111110

Description
U+0E7E is a specialized Unicode character primarily used in the Thaana script, which is an abugida writing system employed for the Divehi language spoken in the Maldives. The Thaana script is unique as it uses only 26 letters to represent both consonants and vowels, making it an efficient way to transcribe the sounds of the Divehi language. In digital text, U+0E7E serves as a crucial building block for various words and phrases in this script, allowing for seamless communication among speakers of the Divehi language. While not widely used in other languages or scripts, its role in preserving the rich cultural heritage of the Maldivian people is undeniable, contributing to the linguistic diversity that Unicode aims to support.
