Step 1: Determine the UTF-8 encoding bit layout
The character has the Unicode code point U+0EF8. In UTF-8, it is encoded using 3 bytes because its codepoint is in the range of
0x0800
to0xffff
.
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 thex
are 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+0EF8 to binary:
00001110 11111000
. 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 10111011 10111000

Description
U+0EF8 is a character within the Unicode standard, which is an extensive database of symbols, emojis, alphabetic characters, and other typographical elements used in digital text. This specific character has a numeric code value of 416 and is represented by the hexadecimal number 0EF8. In its typical usage or role in digital text, U+0EF8 does not have any significant or widely recognized purpose. It may be a reserved or placeholder value for future development within Unicode, or it could be an uncommon character used in specific technical contexts, such as programming languages or specialized software applications. There is no notable cultural, linguistic, or technical context associated with U+0EF8 that would make it stand out from other characters within the vast Unicode system. Overall, its function and relevance are limited, making it an obscure character in the world of digital typography and text encoding.
