Step 1: Determine the UTF-8 encoding bit layout
The character has the Unicode code point U+1AFE. 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+1AFE to binary:
00011010 11111110. 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:
11100001 10101011 10111110

Description
The Unicode character U+1AFE, or CHARACTER 1AFE, is a symbol that holds no typical usage or role in digital text. It does not represent any specific letter, number, punctuation mark, or symbol in any known language or script. This character may be used as a private-use area code within the Unicode Standard, which means it can be reserved for special purposes by organizations or individuals, typically for proprietary use cases where there is no conflicting usage with standard characters. It does not have any notable cultural, linguistic, or technical context outside of these possible private-use applications.
