    Several earlier 16-bit floating point formats have existed including that of Hitachi's HD61810 DSP of 1982 (a 4-bit exponent and a 12-bit mantissa), [2] Thomas J. Scott's WIF of 1991 (5 exponent bits, 10 mantissa bits) [3] and the 3dfx Voodoo Graphics processor of 1995 (same as Hitachi).

    Text file with portion of The Human Side of Animals by Royal Dixon, displayed by the command cat in an xterm window. In computing, plain text is a loose term for data (e.g. file contents) that represent only characters of readable material but not its graphical representation nor other objects (floating-point numbers, images, etc.).

  8. Ascii85 - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ascii85

    Ascii85, also called Base85, is a form of binary-to-text encoding developed by Paul E. Rutter for the btoa utility. By using five ASCII characters to represent four bytes of binary data (making the encoded size 1 ⁄ 4 larger than the original, assuming eight bits per ASCII character), it is more efficient than uuencode or Base64, which use four characters to represent three bytes of data (1 ...
