Please do not take this text as a literal translation, but as a help to understand the standard GB 18030-2000. Insertions in brackets [] are used throughout the text to indicate corresponding sections of the published Chinese standard. Thanks to Markus Scherer (IBM) and Ken Lunde (Adobe Systems) for initial critical reviews of the text. SUMMARY, EXPLANATIONS, AND REMARKS: CHINESE NATIONAL STANDARD GB 18030-2000: INFORMATION TECHNOLOGY – CHINESE IDEOGRAMS CODED CHARACTER SET FOR INFORMATION INTERCHANGE – EXTENSION FOR THE BASIC SET (信息技术－信息交换用汉字编码字符集 Xinxi Jishu – Xinxi Jiaohuan Yong Hanzi Bianma Zifuji – Jibenji De Kuochong) March 17, 2000, was the publishing date of the Chinese national standard (国家标准 guojia biaozhun) GB 18030-2000 (hereafter: GBK2K). This standard tries to resolve issues resulting from the advent of Unicode, version 3.0. More specific, it attempts the combination of Uni- code's extended character repertoire, namely the Unihan Extension A, with the character cov- erage of earlier Chinese national standards. HISTORY The People’s Republic of China had already expressed her fundamental consent to support the combined efforts of the ISO/IEC and the Unicode Consortium through publishing a Chinese National Standard that was code- and character-compatible with ISO 10646-1/ Unicode 2.1. This standard was named GB 13000.1. Whenever the ISO and the Unicode Consortium changed or revised their “common” standard, GB 13000.1 adopted these changes subsequently. In order to remain compatible with GB 2312, however, which at the time of publishing Unicode/GB 13000.1 was an already existing national standard widely used to represent the Chinese “simplified” characters, the “specification” GBK was created.

  • A Ruse Secluded Character Set for the Source
    JOURNAL OF ARCHITECTURE & TECHNOLOGY Issn No : 1006-7930 A Ruse Secluded character set for the Source Mr. J Purna Prakash1, Assistant Professor Mr. M. Rama Raju 2, Assistant Professor Christu Jyothi Institute of Technology & Science Abstract We are rich in data, but information is poor, typically world wide web and data streams. The effective and efficient analysis of data in which is different forms becomes a challenging task. Searching for knowledge to match the exact keyword is big task in Internet such as search engine. Now a days using Unicode Transform Format (UTF) is extended to UTF-16 and UTF-32. With helps to create more special characters how we want. China has GB 18030-character set. Less number of website are using ASCII format in china, recently. While searching some keyword we are unable get the exact webpage in search engine in top place. Issues in certain we face this problem in results announcement, notifications, latest news, latest products released. Mainly on government websites are not shown in the front page. To avoid this trap from common people, we require special character set to match the exact unique keyword. Most of the keywords are encoded with the ASCII format. While searching keyword called cbse net results thousands of websites will have the common keyword as cbse net results. Matching the keyword, it is already encoded in all website as ASCII format. Most of the government websites will not offer search engine optimization. Match a unique keyword in government, banking, Institutes, Online exam purpose. Proposals is to create a character set from A to Z and a to z, for the purpose of data cleaning.

  • UTF-8 from Wikipedia, the Free Encyclopedia
    UTF-8 From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia UTF-8 is a character encoding capable of encoding all possible characters, or code points, defined by Unicode and originally designed by Ken Thompson and Rob Pike.[1] The encoding is variable-length and uses 8-bit code units. It was designed for backward compatibility with ASCII and to avoid the complications of endianness and byte order marks in the alternative UTF-16 and UTF-32 encodings. The name is derived from Unicode (or Universal Coded Character Set) Transformation Format – 8- bit.[2] UTF-8 is the dominant character encoding for the World Wide Web, accounting for 89.1% of all Web pages in May 2017 (the most popular East Asian encodings, Shift JIS and GB 2312, have 0.9% and 0.7% respectively).[4][5][3] The Internet Mail Consortium (IMC) recommended that all e-mail programs be able to display and create mail using UTF-8,[6] and the W3C recommends UTF-8 as the default encoding in XML and HTML.[7] UTF-8 encodes each of the 1,112,064[8] valid code points in Unicode using one to four 8-bit bytes.[9] Code points with lower numerical values, which tend to occur more frequently, are encoded using fewer bytes. The first 128 characters of Unicode, which correspond one-to-one with ASCII, are encoded using a single octet with the same binary value as ASCII, so that valid ASCII text is valid UTF-8-encoded Unicode as well. Since ASCII bytes do not occur when encoding non-ASCII code points into UTF-8, UTF-8 is safe to use within most programming and document languages that interpret certain ASCII characters in a special way, such as '/' in filenames, '\' in escape sequences, and '%' in printf.

  • Omega — Why Bother with Unicode?

  • NAME DESCRIPTION Supported Encodings
    Perl version 5.8.6 documentation - Encode::Supported NAME Encode::Supported -- Encodings supported by Encode DESCRIPTION Encoding Names Encoding names are case insensitive. White space in names is ignored. In addition, an encoding may have aliases. Each encoding has one "canonical" name. The "canonical" name is chosen from the names of the encoding by picking the first in the following sequence (with a few exceptions). The name used by the Perl community. That includes 'utf8' and 'ascii'. Unlike aliases, canonical names directly reach the method so such frequently used words like 'utf8' don't need to do alias lookups. The MIME name as defined in IETF RFCs. This includes all "iso-"s. The name in the IANA registry. The name used by the organization that defined it. In case de jure canonical names differ from that of the Encode module, they are always aliased if it ever be implemented. So you can safely tell if a given encoding is implemented or not just by passing the canonical name. Because of all the alias issues, and because in the general case encodings have state, "Encode" uses an encoding object internally once an operation is in progress. Supported Encodings As of Perl 5.8.0, at least the following encodings are recognized. Note that unless otherwise specified, they are all case insensitive (via alias) and all occurrence of spaces are replaced with '-'. In other words, "ISO 8859 1" and "iso-8859-1" are identical. Encodings are categorized and implemented in several different modules but you don't have to use Encode::XX to make them available for most cases.
