Step 1: Determine the UTF-8 encoding bit layout
The character has the Unicode code point U+000B. In UTF-8, it is encoded using 1 byte because its codepoint is in the range of
0x0000to0x007f.
Therefore we know that the UTF-8 encoding will be done over 7 bits within the final 8 bits and that it will have the format:0xxxxxxx
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+000B to binary:
00001011. 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:
00001011

Description
The Unicode character U+000B, also known as the LINE TABULATION (LF), is a control character of crucial significance in digital text documents. It serves to initiate a new line or paragraph across various platforms and programming languages. Historically rooted from the ASCII standard as Control M (Ctrl+Z), it plays an essential role in managing line breaks within text data. The LINE TABULATION character is often paired with the CARRIAGE RETURN (CR) character, U+000D, to control both horizontal and vertical text formatting for accurate presentation of text documents on multiple devices and applications while ensuring compatibility across different operating systems. The LF character lies within the Basic Latin Unicode block, a foundational component of the Unicode system encompassing 128 essential characters. The LINE TABULATION (LF) character has historical roots in the ASCII standard and continues to be an integral part of modern digital communication due to its role in controlling line breaks across various platforms and applications.
