Step 1: Determine the UTF-8 encoding bit layout
The character has the Unicode code point U+070E. In UTF-8, it is encoded using 2 bytes because its codepoint is in the range of
0x0080to0x07ff.
Therefore we know that the UTF-8 encoding will be done over 11 bits within the final 16 bits and that it will have the format:110xxxxx 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+070E to binary:
00000111 00001110. 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:
11011100 10001110

Description
The Unicode character U+070E represents the character 'CHARACTER 070E'. This character is often used as a generic placeholder in digital text, particularly in file formats that require a fixed-width representation for unspecified or undetermined characters. It may be found in various encoding schemes and data storage systems where a specific glyph or symbol has not been assigned or is currently unavailable. The character does not have any notable cultural, linguistic, or technical context, as its primary role is to serve as a placeholder. However, it can play a critical role in maintaining the structural integrity of digital texts and data storage systems by occupying predetermined positions without causing errors due to missing or unrepresented characters.
