Telex or TELEX ( Vietnamese: Quốc ngữ điện tín, lit. 'national language telex '), is a convention for encoding Vietnamese text in plain ASCII characters. Originally used for transmitting Vietnamese text over telex systems, it is one of the most used input method on phones and touchscreens and also computers. Vietnamese Morse code uses ...
For example, ASCII whitespace may be used to tokenize a UTF-8 stream into words; ASCII line-feeds may be used to split a UTF-8 stream into lines; and ASCII NUL characters can be used to split UTF-8-encoded data into null-terminated strings. Similarly, many format strings used by library functions like "printf" will correctly handle UTF-8 ...
Background. The distinction made by Unicode between character and glyph variant is somewhat problematic in the case of the runes; the reason is the high degree of variation of letter shapes in historical inscriptions, with many "characters" appearing in highly variant shapes, and many specific shapes taking the role of a number of different characters over the period of runic use (roughly the ...
ASCII ( / ˈæskiː / ⓘ ASS-kee ), [3] : 6 an acronym for American Standard Code for Information Interchange, is a character encoding standard for electronic communication. ASCII codes represent text in computers, telecommunications equipment, and other devices.
Windows-1252 or CP-1252 ( Windows code page 1252) is a legacy single-byte character encoding [2] that is used by default in Microsoft Windows throughout the Americas, Western Europe, Oceania, and much of Africa . Initially the same as ISO 8859-1, it began to diverge starting in Windows 2.0 by adding additional characters in the 0x80 to 0x9F ...
Braille ASCII. Braille ASCII (or more formally The North American Braille ASCII Code, also known as SimBraille) is a subset of the ASCII character set which uses 64 of the printable ASCII characters to represent all possible dot combinations in six-dot braille. It was developed around 1969 and, despite originally being known as North American ...
Character encoding is the process of assigning numbers to graphical characters, especially the written characters of human language, allowing them to be stored, transmitted, and transformed using digital computers. [1] The numerical values that make up a character encoding are known as "code points" and collectively comprise a "code space", a ...
First, the web server can include the character encoding or " charset " in the Hypertext Transfer Protocol (HTTP) Content-Type header, which would typically look like this: [1] Content-Type: text/html; charset=utf-8. This method gives the HTTP server a convenient way to alter document's encoding according to content negotiation; certain HTTP ...
