Step 1: Determine the UTF-8 encoding bit layout
The character has the Unicode code point U+000D. 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+000D to binary:
00001101. 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:
00001101

Description
The Unicode character U+000D, also known as the Control character (less than control greater), is a critical symbol in digital text encoding, specifically serving as the Carriage Return (CR) in both ASCII and Unicode character sets. Its primary function is to signify a line break or move the cursor to the beginning of the next line on text-based systems, ensuring readable formatting in documents and code. Originating from the ASCII character set, U+000D is an essential component of the Basic Latin Unicode block (U+0000 to U+007F). This block forms the foundation of the Unicode system, encompassing 128 characters that cater to various needs, including control codes and special symbols crucial for programming languages, text documents, and numerous other applications. Although less frequently used in modern software due to the Line Feed (LF) character's prevalence for line breaks, U+000D remains a vital part of digital text encoding, particularly in legacy systems and specific programming languages. It is also a key part of the Basic Multilingual Plane, which contains most common characters used across various cultures, languages, and technical contexts.
