Like old typewriters, plain base characters (white spaces, punctuation characters, symbols, digits, or letters) can be followed by one or more non-spacing symbols (usually diacritics, like accent marks modifying letters) to form a single printable character; but Unicode also provides a limited set of precomposed characters, i.e. characters that ...

A metacharacter is a character that has a special meaning to a computer program, such as a shell interpreter or a regular expression (regex) engine.. In POSIX extended regular expressions, there are 14 metacharacters that must be escaped — preceded by a backslash (\) — in order to drop their special meaning and be treated literally inside an expression: opening and closing square brackets ...
Tokens are identified based on the specific rules of the lexer. Some methods used to identify tokens include regular expressions, specific sequences of characters termed a flag, specific separating characters called delimiters, and explicit definition by a dictionary. Special characters, including punctuation characters, are commonly used by ...
In terms of regular expressions, a basic quoted string literal is given as: "[^"]*" This means that a string literal is written as: a quote, followed by zero, one, or more non-quote characters, followed by a quote. In practice this is often complicated by escaping, other delimiters, and excluding newlines.
The category of character sets includes articles on specific character encodings (see the article for a precise definition). It includes those used in computer science (coded character sets (also known as character sets (this term should not be used anymore [according to whom?]) or code pages), character encoding forms, character encoding schemes) and those that use non-numeric, pre-digital ...
