Step 1: Determine the UTF-8 encoding bit layout
The character ༩ has the Unicode code point U+0F29. 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+0F29 to binary:
00001111 00101001
. 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 10111100 10101001

Description
The Unicode character U+0F29 represents the Tibetan digit nine (ཉི), which is primarily used in the Tibetan script for numerals. In digital text, this character serves a crucial role in rendering accurate and culturally appropriate numerical values within Tibetan language documents, texts, and applications. The Tibetan script has its own unique numerical system, which differs from both the Hindu-Arabic numeral system and the Chinese numeral system. Consequently, the use of U+0F29 is vital for precise communication and preservation of linguistic integrity in digital formats. The character is also significant in maintaining cultural heritage and promoting diversity in written languages across the globe.
