Step 1: Determine the UTF-8 encoding bit layout
The character has the Unicode code point U+086E. 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+086E to binary:
00001000 01101110. 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 10100001 10101110

Description
U+086E, known as the character "CHARACTER 086E," holds a unique position in Unicode's typographic landscape. This distinct symbol does not represent a specific character from any particular language or script; rather, it serves as a Control Picture character. In digital text processing, these characters are often employed to control various aspects of the output formatting or to signal special instructions to the system. The precise function of U+086E depends on the specific software and environment in which it is utilized. Despite its lack of direct cultural or linguistic significance, CHARACTER 086E plays a vital role in maintaining the accuracy and clarity of digital text by ensuring proper formatting and adherence to predetermined instructions.
