Step 1: Determine the UTF-8 encoding bit layout
The character has the Unicode code point U+0BFF. 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+0BFF to binary:
00001011 11111111. 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 10101111 10111111

Description
The Unicode character U+0BFF, also known as CHARACTER 0BFF, holds a unique position within the realm of digital typography. As a non-spacing modifier letter with a combining character code, this particular symbol is often employed in the representation of various alphabets and scripts that require specific accentuation or diacritics. U+0BFF serves to adjust the base character's positioning and alignment, ensuring proper formatting in digital text. While its usage may not be as widespread as other popular characters within the Unicode Standard, CHARACTER 0BFF remains an indispensable tool for typographers working with less common alphabets and scripts that demand precise accents and diacritical marks.
