Decode UTF-8 String Swift iOS

Question

I am trying to decode a string which is in UTF-8 format, into normal human readable string and tried may codes available on SO. But non of these worked.

My demo UTF-8 String is :-

let demoString: String = "यॠपहलॠपहलॠà¤à¤¾à¤¹à¤¤à¤¯à¥ बहà¤à¥ बहà¤à¥ हालत"

Is there is anyway to decode this UTF-8 String in swift. Any help would be appricated.

Answer 1

let demoString: String = "यॠपहलॠपहलॠà¤à¤¾à¤¹à¤¤à¤¯à¥ बहà¤à¥ बहà¤à¥ हालत"

This defines a perfectly fine string containing some rather weird characters like "à", "¤" and so on. There is no decoding that can be done here. The first character is a "Latin Small Letter A With Grave", U+00E0 or C3A0 in UTF-8 format.

If you want a string with "Hindi" characters - I suppose you mean Devanagari, or Bengali, Gurmukhi, Gujarati etc. , type for example

let demoString: String = "ऄइउऋऌऍ"
