Step 1: Determine the UTF-8 encoding bit layout
The character has the Unicode code point U+0FDF. 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+0FDF to binary:
00001111 11011111. 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 10111111 10011111

Description
U+0FDF is a character in the Unicode standard that holds significance in specific typographic and cultural contexts. This character, also known as "CHARACTER 0FDF," primarily serves as a control character for digital text. It assists in managing text formatting, particularly when dealing with right-to-left (RTL) scripts or non-Latin alphabets. The Unicode value U+0FDF is crucial in the correct display and functionality of these complex text systems. While not a commonly encountered symbol in everyday text, U+0FDF plays an essential role within certain specialized applications. Its presence can be traced back to its origins as a part of the Arabic presentation forms found in Unicode 3.1. This character contributes to preserving cultural and linguistic nuances by ensuring accurate representation of these scripts on digital platforms. In sum, U+0FDF is an indispensable component of digital text processing, particularly for RTL languages and non-Latin alphabets, demonstrating the richness and diversity of typography within the Unicode system.
