Explanation :
UTF-8 is an 8-bit variable-length encoding scheme designed to be compatible with ASCII encoding.
The encoding scheme distributes a Unicode code value's bit pattern across 1, 2, 3, or even 4 bytes.
This encoding is a multi-byte encoding scheme.
Unicode provides a unique number for every character.
It including punctuation marks, mathematical symbols, technical symbols, arrows, and characters making up non-Latin alphabets such as Thai, Chinese, or Arabic script.
Unicode is an industry standard for the consistent encoding of written text.
Unicode defines different character encodings, the most used ones being UTF-8, UTF-16, and UTF-32. UTF-8 is definitely the most popular encoding in the Unicode family, especially on the Web.
Additional Information
ASCII (American Standard Code for Information Interchange) character set contains 128 characters for English letters, numbers, and some control characters.
ASCII encoding maps each character to 1 byte with the leading bit set to 0, and the other 7 bits representing the code point of the character.
