Step 1: Determine the UTF-8 encoding bit layout
The character ྡ has the Unicode code point U+0FA1. 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+0FA1 to binary:
00001111 10100001
. 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 10111110 10100001

Description
The character U+0FA1, known as the Tibetan Subjoined Letter DA, plays a significant role in the digital representation of the Tibetan script. As a part of the Unicode Standard, it contributes to the accurate encoding and display of text in the Tibetan language, which is primarily spoken in the Tibet Autonomous Region of China and parts of India. The character U+0FA1, specifically, represents the subjoined form of the letter "DA" in the Tibetan script, used for both consonants and vowels. This allows for proper phonetic rendering and comprehension in digital text, ensuring linguistic accuracy and cultural preservation.
