Step 1: Determine the UTF-8 encoding bit layout
The character has the Unicode code point U+0FEC. In UTF-8, it is encoded using 3 bytes because its codepoint is in the range of
0x0800
to0xffff
.
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 thex
are 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+0FEC to binary:
00001111 11101100
. 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 10101100

Description
The Unicode character U+0FEC is a less commonly used character in the Latin Extended Additional range of typography. It holds the code point 0xFEC in the Unicode Standard, which is utilized for representing digital text and characters in various languages and scripts. This particular character has no widely recognized cultural or linguistic significance, nor does it serve any specific technical purpose. It may be found in unique font sets or custom character encodings but generally holds little importance within the realm of typography and Unicode.
