Step 1: Determine the UTF-8 encoding bit layout
The character has the Unicode code point U+0FEA. 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+0FEA to binary:
00001111 11101010. 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 10101010

Description
U+0FEA is a Unicode character that holds no standardized typographic representation within the Latin Extended-C subset of the Unicode Standard. It is primarily used in digital text to serve as a placeholder or as a marker for non-printable characters. Due to its unassigned status, it does not carry any cultural, linguistic, or technical significance beyond this role. While U+0FEA may be encountered in various contexts, its usage remains limited and specific, and it is generally of interest only to those dealing with the lower levels of text encoding or software development.
