the most commonly used character encoding on the World Wide Web until December 2007, when it was surpassed by UTF-8.

The brainfuck language uses a simple machine model consisting of the program and instruction pointer, as well as an array of at least 30, 000 byte cells initialized to zero ; a movable data pointer ( initialized to point to the leftmost byte of the array ); and two streams of bytes for input and output ( most often connected to a keyboard and a monitor respectively, and using the ASCII character encoding ).

The proposed encoding does not use the lexical encoding model used in the existing ISO-IR / 169 registered character set, but instead applies the Unicode and ISO character-glyph model to the Bliss-character model already adopted by BCI, since this would significantly reduce the number of needed characters.

Common examples of character encoding systems include Morse code, the Baudot code, the American Standard Code for Information Interchange ( ASCII ) and Unicode.

The need to support more writing systems for different languages, including the CJK family of East Asian scripts, required support for a far larger number of characters and demanded a systematic approach to character encoding rather than the previous ad hoc approaches.

It is in-band signaling in the context of character encoding.

There are several ways to specify which character encoding is used in the document.

First, the web server can include the character encoding or "" in the Hypertext Transfer Protocol ( HTTP ) header, which would typically look like this:

XHTML documents have a third option: to express the character encoding via XML declaration, as follows:

The HTTP / 1. 1 header specification for a HTML document must label an appropriate encoding in the Content-Type header, missing < tt > charset =</ tt > parameter results in acceptance of ISO-8859-1 ( so HTTP / 1. 1 formally does not offer such option as an unspecified character encoding ), and this specification supersedes all HTML ( or XHTML ) meta element ones.

As each of these methods explain to the receiver how the file being sent should be interpreted, it would be inappropriate for these declarations not to match the actual character encoding used.

However, if the document does not specify the encoding either, this may result in the equally bad situation where the user agent displays mojibake because it cannot find out which character encoding was used.

If a user agent reads a document with no character encoding information, it can fall back to using some other information.

If the page's creator and reader are both assuming some platform-specific character encoding, and the server does not send any identifying information, then the reader will nonetheless see the page as the creator intended, but other readers on different platforms or with different native languages will not see the page as intended.

However, for backward compatibility with early HTML authors and browsers that ignored this restriction, raw characters and numeric character references in the 80 – 9F range are interpreted by some browsers as representing the characters mapped to bytes 80 – 9F in the Windows-1252 encoding.

If the character encoding for a web page is chosen appropriately then HTML character references are usually only required for a markup delimiting characters mentioned above, and for a few special characters ( or not at all if a native Unicode encoding like UTF-8 is used ).

* Charset sniffing – used by many browsers when character encoding metadata is not available

The norms, as elements, refer to `` all criteria for judging the character or conduct of both individual and group actions in any social system ''.

The disadvantage to this system is that while the SAA5050 would expect to be repeatedly fed the same 40 bytes of data for every display scanline of each character row, the ULA would read a different set of 40 bytes for every display scanline in order to produce a full graphics display.

* No sound support aside from a command that could be used to click the speaker, though one could also an ASCII bell character to sound the system alert beep.

* The 400 / 800's 10 KB operating system was replaced with a simpler 2 KB BIOS, of which 1 KB is the built-in character set.

More recent IUPAC recommendations now suggest the newer term " hydronium " be used in favor of the older accepted term " oxonium " to illustrate reaction mechanisms such as those defined in the Brønsted – Lowry and solvent system definitions more clearly, with the Arrhenius definition serving as a simple general outline of acid – base character.

BBS software authors included these extended character sets in their software, and terminal program authors included the ability to display them when a compatible system was called.

This trend is due to the amide character of the β-lactam being reduced by the aplanarity of the system.

For example, an IBM PC might have either a monochrome or a color display adapter ( using different display memory addresses and hardware ), but a single, standard, BIOS system call may be invoked to display a character at a specified position on the screen in text mode.

The fantasy game supplement Thieves World, based on the popular series of books by Robert Lynn Asprin, used both the system for Advanced Dungeons & Dragons as well as the RuneQuest variation of the BRP for character statistics, representing the two most popular game systems of the time.

* The Braille system was the first binary format for character encoding, using a six-bit code rendered as dot patterns.

Dissenting opinions included Justice Stevens's, who wrote "... the voluntary character of the private choice to prefer a parochial education over an education in the public school system seems to me quite irrelevant to the question whether the government's choice to pay for religious indoctrination is constitutionally permissible.

Other key members of the development team included Bill Trost, who created the history, lore and major characters of Norrath ( including Everquest protagonist Firiona Vie ), Geoffrey " GZ " Zatkin who implemented the spell system, and artist Milo D. Cooper, who did the original character modeling in the game.

Subsequent revisions to the rules add options including a Magic characteristic, melodramatic character traits, and other complications, but the core system remains unchanged.

The character generation system involves players rolling completely random characters.

In a typeface each character typically corresponds to a single glyph, but there are exceptions, such as a font used for a language with a large alphabet or complex writing system, where one character may correspond to several glyphs, or several characters to one glyph.

Pinafore, the D ' Oyly Carte repertory and production system was cemented, and each opera would make use of these stock character types.

In 1918 Roman Catholic schools were brought into the state system, but retained their distinct religious character, access to schools by priests and the requirement that school staff be acceptable to the Church.

ASCII art is a graphic design technique that uses computers for presentation and consists of pictures pieced together from the 95 printable ( from a total of 128 ) characters defined by the ASCII Standard from 1963 and ASCII compliant character sets with proprietary extended characters ( beyond the 128 characters of standard 7-bit ASCII

Hogarth, for example, thinks that beauty consists of ( 1 ) fitness of the parts to some design ; ( 2 ) variety in as many ways as possible ; ( 3 ) uniformity, regularity or symmetry, which is only beautiful when it helps to preserve the character of fitness ; ( 4 ) simplicity or distinctness, which gives pleasure not in itself, but through its enabling the eye to enjoy variety with ease ; ( 5 ) intricacy, which provides employment for our active energies, leading the eye on " a wanton kind of chase "; and ( 6 ) quantity or magnitude, which draws our attention and produces admiration and awe.
