character set

<character> 1. A particular mapping between characters and byte strings, i.e. the combination of a particular character encoding (which maps between byte strings and integers) and a particular coded character set (which maps between integers and characters). For example: ASCII (the ASCII coded character set, encoded directly as single-byte values), or UTF-8 (the Unicode coded character set, encoded with an 8-bit transformation method). 2. Occasionally: a character repertoire; or a {coded character set}. (1998-12-17)

coded character set

<character, standard> A mapping from a set of integers to a set of characters. This mapping is generally 1:1 (i.e., bijective), for example, the code position 65 in ASCII maps only to "A", and it's the only position that maps to "A". There are several standard coded character sets, the most widely used is ASCII, generally in its Latin-1 dialect, with Unicode becoming slowly more common; while EBCDIC and Baudot are extinct except in legacy systems. A coded character set may include letters, digits, punctuation, control codes, various mathematical and typographic symbols, and other characters. Each character in the set is represented by a unique character code (or "{code position}"). (1998-10-18)

Comparison of western latin character sets; Western Latin Character sets (computing)

Several binary representations of 8-bit character sets for common Western European languages are compared in this article. These encodings were designed for representation of Italian, Spanish, Portuguese, French, German, Dutch, English, Danish, Swedish, Norwegian, and Icelandic, which use the Latin alphabet, a few additional letters and ones with precomposed diacritics, some punctuation, and various symbols (including some Greek letters).

Wikipedia

Character encoding

Character encoding is the process of assigning numbers to graphical characters, especially the written characters of human language, allowing them to be stored, transmitted, and transformed using digital computers. The numerical values that make up a character encoding are known as "code points" and collectively comprise a "code space", a "code page", or a "character map".

Early character codes associated with the optical or electrical telegraph could only represent a subset of the characters used in written languages, sometimes restricted to upper case letters, numerals and some punctuation only. The low cost of digital representation of data in modern computer systems allows more elaborate character codes (such as Unicode) which represent most of the characters used in many written languages. Character encoding using internationally accepted standards permits worldwide interchange of text in electronic form.

Examples of use of Character sets

1. The United States also is very supportive of local content and languages on the Internet.'4; According to Gross, the United States has been working with countries and private enterprise around the world to support different character sets, leading to new languages and more access to the Internet in more countries.

2. The diversity of language is a particular challenge for the growth of the DNS and the growth of the Internet.'4; And the technicians are the best to address that, the engineers, because they are able to adapt the Internet system to handle different character sets and the different challenges posed by foreign languages.'4; And I would offer two other points on that.'4; It is a problem not just for the Internet; it is a problem for software in general.'4; And that ICANN is focused on working with the world on solutions so that the Internet can expand lingually as well as geographically.
