ASCII ( / ˈæskiː / ⓘ ASS-kee ), [3] : 6 an acronym for American Standard Code for Information Interchange, is a character encoding standard for electronic communication. ASCII codes represent text in computers, telecommunications equipment, and other devices.
Braille ASCII. Braille ASCII (or more formally The North American Braille ASCII Code, also known as SimBraille) is a subset of the ASCII character set which uses 64 of the printable ASCII characters to represent all possible dot combinations in six-dot braille. It was developed around 1969 and, despite originally being known as North American ...
Runic is a Unicode block containing runic characters . It was introduced in Unicode 3.0 (1999), with eight additional characters introduced in Unicode 7.0 (2014). [3] The original encoding of runes in UCS was based on the recommendations of the "ISO Runes Project" submitted in 1997. [a]
Mojibake ( Japanese: 文字化け; IPA: [mod͡ʑibake], "character transformation") is the garbled or gibberish text that is the result of text being decoded using an unintended character encoding. [1] The result is a systematic replacement of symbols with completely unrelated ones, often from a different writing system .
Extended ASCII is a repertoire of character encodings that include (most of) the original 96 ASCII character set, plus up to 128 additional characters. There is no formal definition of "extended ASCII", and even use of the term is sometimes criticized, [1] [2] [3] because it can be mistakenly interpreted to mean that the American National ...
Computer Braille Code. Computer Braille is an adaptation of braille for precise representation of computer-related materials such as programs, program lines, computer commands, and filenames. Unlike standard 6-dot braille scripts, but like Gardner–Salinas braille codes, this may employ the extended 8-dot braille patterns.
A braille translator is a software program that translates electronic text (such as an MS-Word file) into braille and sends it to a braille peripheral, such as a braille embosser (which produces a hard copy of the newly created braille). Typically, each language needs its own braille translator. Despite the use of the word translator, there is ...
Cyrillic script in Unicode. As of Unicode version 15.1, Cyrillic script is encoded across several blocks : The characters in the range U+0400–U+045F are basically the characters from ISO 8859-5 moved upward by 864 positions. The next characters in the Cyrillic block, range U+0460–U+0489, are historical letters, some of which are still used ...
