Step 1: Determine the UTF-8 encoding bit layout
The character ฬ has the Unicode code point U+0E2C. 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+0E2C to binary:
00001110 00101100. 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 10101100

Description
The Unicode character U+0E2C, known as THAI CHARACTER LO CHULA, is a vital element of the Thai script, which is primarily used for writing in the Thai language. It plays a crucial role in digital text representation, enabling accurate communication and preservation of the Thai linguistic heritage in the online world. The Thai script, like many other alphabets, relies on diacritics to modify the base characters' meaning and pronunciation. In this case, the LO CHULA diacritic signifies a slight modification to the base character, affecting its sound value within the spoken language. As part of the Thai script, THAI CHARACTER LO CHULA contributes to the rich cultural and linguistic context of Thailand, reflecting its unique history and national identity. In digital text systems, accurate encoding and representation of characters like U+0E2C are essential for maintaining the integrity of written Thai language in various applications such as websites, software, and electronic documents.
