  2. Binary-to-text encoding - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Binary-to-text_encoding

    A binary-to-text encoding is encoding of data in plain text. More precisely, it is an encoding of binary data in a sequence of printable characters. These encodings are necessary for transmission of data when the communication channel does not allow binary data (such as email or NNTP) or is not 8-bit clean. PGP documentation (RFC 4880) uses the ...

  3. Base64 - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Base64

    Base64. In computer programming, Base64 is a group of binary-to-text encoding schemes that transforms binary data into a sequence of printable characters, limited to a set of 64 unique characters. More specifically, the source binary data is taken 6 bits at a time, then this group of 6 bits is mapped to one of 64 unique characters.

  4. Translator (computing) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Translator_(computing)

    A translator or programming language processor is a computer program that converts the programming instructions written in human convenient form into machine language codes that the computers understand and process. It is a generic term that can refer to a compiler, assembler, or interpreter —anything that converts code from one computer ...

  5. Skew binary number system - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Skew_binary_number_system

    The skew binary number system is a non-standard positional numeral system in which the n th digit contributes a value of times the digit (digits are indexed from 0) instead of times as they do in binary. Each digit has a value of 0, 1, or 2. A number can have many skew binary representations. For example, a decimal number 15 can be written as ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Source-to-source_compiler

    The Runtime Converter is an automatic tool which converts PHP source code into Java source code. There is a Java runtime library for certain features of the PHP language, as well as the ability to call into the PHP binary itself using JNI for PHP standard library and extension function calls.

  7. Binary translation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Binary_translation

    Binary translation. In computing, binary translation is a form of binary recompilation where sequences of instructions are translated from a source instruction set to the target instruction set. In some cases such as instruction set simulation, the target instruction set may be the same as the source instruction set, providing testing and ...

  8. Compiler - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Compiler

    Program execution. In computing, a compiler is a computer program that translates computer code written in one programming language (the source language) into another language (the target language). The name "compiler" is primarily used for programs that translate source code from a high-level programming language to a low-level programming ...

  9. Binary file - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Binary_file

    A binary file is a computer file that is not a text file. [1] The term "binary file" is often used as a term meaning "non-text file". [2] Many binary file formats contain parts that can be interpreted as text; for example, some computer document files containing formatted text, such as older Microsoft Word document files, contain the text of ...
