Step 1: Determine the UTF-8 encoding bit layout
The character ก has the Unicode code point U+0E01. 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+0E01 to binary:
00001110 00000001. 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 10111000 10000001

Description
The Unicode character U+0E01, known as THAI CHARACTER KO KAI, plays a vital role in digital Thai text by representing the sound 'k', making it one of the essential consonant letters in the Thai script. This symbol is part of the Thai block within the Unicode Standard, which encompasses all characters needed for the Thai language. U+0E01 is particularly significant as it represents an important sound in Thai phonetics and contributes to the accurate transcription of words and sentences in digital format. The Thai script, like many other scripts around the world, has its own unique set of rules for character arrangement and spacing that are crucial to maintaining proper communication and understanding within the language. By using U+0E01 and other Unicode characters, developers can ensure the accurate representation of Thai text across various digital platforms and software applications, thus preserving linguistic nuances and cultural context.
