  2. Unicode control characters - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Unicode_control_characters

    The control code ranges 0x00–0x1F ("C0") and 0x7F originate from the 1967 edition of US-ASCII. The standard ISO/IEC 2022 (ECMA-35) defines extension methods for ASCII, including a secondary "C1" range of 8-bit control codes from 0x80 to 0x9F, equivalent to 7-bit sequences of ESC with the bytes 0x40 through 0x5F.

  3. List of Unicode characters - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_Unicode_characters

    A numeric character reference refers to a character by its Universal Character Set/Unicode code point, and a character entity reference refers to a character by a predefined name. A numeric character reference uses the format &#nnnn; or &#xhhhh; where nnnn is the code point in decimal form, and hhhh is the code point in hexadecimal form.

  4. Infinity - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Infinity

    The symbol is encoded in Unicode at U+221E ∞ INFINITY (∞) [25] and in LaTeX as \infty. [ 26 ] It was introduced in 1655 by John Wallis , [ 27 ] [ 28 ] and since its introduction, it has also been used outside mathematics in modern mysticism [ 29 ] and literary symbology .

  5. UTF-8 - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/UTF-8

    Java internally uses Modified UTF-8 (MUTF-8), in which the null character U+0000 uses the two-byte overlong encoding 0xC0, 0x80, instead of just 0x00. [60] Modified UTF-8 strings never contain any actual null bytes but can contain all Unicode code points including U+0000, [ 61 ] which allows such strings (with a null byte appended) to be ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Infinity_symbol

    The infinity symbol (∞) is a mathematical symbol representing the concept of infinity. This symbol is also called a lemniscate , [ 1 ] after the lemniscate curves of a similar shape studied in algebraic geometry , [ 2 ] or "lazy eight", in the terminology of livestock branding .

    The Unicode Consortium and the ISO/IEC JTC 1/SC 2/WG 2 jointly collaborate on the list of the characters in the Universal Coded Character Set.The Universal Coded Character Set, most commonly called the Universal Character Set (abbr. UCS, official designation: ISO/IEC 10646), is an international standard to map characters, discrete symbols used in natural language, mathematics, music, and other ...

  8. Unicode subscripts and superscripts - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Unicode_subscripts_and...

    Thus "H₂O" (using a subscript 2 character) is supposed to be identical to "H 2 O" (with subscript markup). In reality, many fonts that include these characters ignore the Unicode definition, and instead design the digits for mathematical numerator and denominator glyphs, [3] [4] which are aligned with the cap line and the baseline, respectively.

  9. Character encoding - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Character_encoding

    A code unit is the minimum bit combination that can represent a character in a character encoding (in computer science terms, it is the word size of the character encoding). [ 10 ] [ 12 ] For example, common code units include 7-bit, 8-bit, 16-bit, and 32-bit.
