Step 1: Determine the UTF-8 encoding bit layout
The character ྱ has the Unicode code point U+0FB1. 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+0FB1 to binary:
00001111 10110001. 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 10110001

Description
U+0FB1, the Tibetan Subjoined Letter Ya, is a crucial character in the Unicode standard. It primarily serves a significant role in digital text by enabling accurate representation of Tibetan language texts, which use a unique script system. The Tibetan script, known as 'U' (or 'a' in the Wylie transliteration scheme), is a logosyllabic script. This means that each character represents both a consonant and an inherent vowel (usually /a/). In this context, U+0FB1 functions as the subjoined form of the Ya consonant, used when following specific characters. It plays a critical part in representing the rich cultural heritage and linguistic intricacies of the Tibetan language. Additionally, it facilitates precise translations, studies, and digital preservation of Tibetan literature and religious texts, contributing to their continued accessibility for both academic and personal interests.
