In the context of universal character encoding standard, UTF stands for

Explanation

UTF stands for Unicode Transformation Format. It is a character encoding system that maps the universal character set (Unicode) into a sequence of bytes. The Unicode Standard, maintained by the Unicode Consortium, defines several UTFs, including UTF-8, UTF-16, and UTF-32. These formats allow computers to store and transmit text in any language or script consistently across different platforms and programs. UTF-8 is the most dominant encoding for the World Wide Web because it is backward-compatible with ASCII and uses variable-width encoding (1 to 4 bytes), making it highly efficient for data storage and transmission.
