Windows-1252 or CP-1252 (Windows code page 1252) is a legacy single-byte character encoding [2] that is used by default (as the "ANSI code page") in Microsoft Windows throughout the Americas, Western Europe, Oceania, and much of Africa.
Symbol Set 0N — ISO 8859-1 Latin 1 (Initially called "Gothic-1"; coded by IBM as code page 1053) Symbol Set 0R — ISO 8859-5 Latin/Cyrillic (1986 version — IR 111) Symbol Set 0S — ISO 11: 7-bit Swedish; Symbol Set 0U — ISO 6: 7-bit U.S. Symbol Set 0V — Arabic; Symbol Set 1D — ISO 61: 7-bit Norwegian; Symbol Set 1E — ISO 4: 7-bit ...
In order to correctly interpret and display text data (sequences of characters) that includes extended codes, software that reads or receives the text must use the specific encoding that text was written in. Choosing the wrong encoding causes the display of often wildly-incorrect characters, known by the Japanese term mojibake. Because ASCII is ...
[1] [2] It's by far mostly used for Russian, while a small minority of Russian websites use it, with 94.6% of Russian (.ru) websites using UTF-8, [3] [4] [5] and the legacy 8-bit encoding is distant second. In Linux, the encoding is known as cp1251. [6] IBM uses code page 1251 (CCSID 1251 and euro sign extended CCSID 5347) for Windows-1251.
Turbo coding is an iterated soft-decoding scheme that combines two or more relatively simple convolutional codes and an interleaver to produce a block code that can perform to within a fraction of a decibel of the Shannon limit.
For example, the pound sign £ will appear as £ if it was encoded by the sender as UTF-8 but interpreted by the recipient as one of the Western European encodings (CP1252 or ISO 8859-1). If iterated using CP1252, this can lead to £, £, £, Ãâà ...
The decision to use any one encoding may depend on the language used for the documents, or the locale that is the source of the document, or the purpose of the document. Text may be ambiguous as to what encoding it is in, for instance pure ASCII text is valid ASCII or ISO-8859-1 or CP1252 or UTF-8. "Tags" may indicate a document encoding, but ...
Windows-1250 is a code page used under Microsoft Windows to represent texts in Central European and Eastern European languages that use the Latin script.It is primarily used by Czech. [1]
