Step 1: Determine the UTF-8 encoding bit layout
The character ན has the Unicode code point U+0F53. 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+0F53 to binary:
00001111 01010011. 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 10111101 10010011

Description
The Unicode character U+0F53 represents the Tibetan letter Na (ཉ), which plays a significant role in the written form of the Tibetan language. In digital text, it is used to accurately transcribe Tibetan literature, religious texts, and contemporary works, allowing for the preservation and dissemination of the rich cultural heritage of the Tibetan people. The Tibetan script is a unique script that uses logographic characters to represent syllables rather than individual phonemes or letters, which sets it apart from other scripts used in various regions worldwide. This script has been in use for over 1,300 years and holds immense cultural, linguistic, and historical importance for the Tibetan people. In the digital realm, Unicode's comprehensive character set ensures accurate representation of this ancient script, promoting literacy and ensuring that future generations can continue to engage with their cultural heritage through written text.
