  2. Binary-to-text encoding - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Binary-to-text_encoding

    A binary-to-text encoding is encoding of data in plain text. More precisely, it is an encoding of binary data in a sequence of printable characters. These encodings are necessary for transmission of data when the communication channel does not allow binary data (such as email or NNTP) or is not 8-bit clean. PGP documentation ( RFC 4880) uses ...

  3. Quoted-printable - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Quoted-printable

    Quoted-printable. Quoted-Printable, or QP encoding, is a binary-to-text encoding system using printable ASCII characters ( alphanumeric and the equals sign =) to transmit 8-bit data over a 7-bit data path or, generally, over a medium which is not 8-bit clean. Historically, because of the wide range of systems and protocols that could be used to ...

  4. Binary-coded decimal - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Binary-coded_decimal

    Decimal: 9 1. Binary : 1001 0001. Hence the numerical range for one unpacked BCD byte is zero through nine inclusive, whereas the range for one packed BCD byte is zero through ninety-nine inclusive. To represent numbers larger than the range of a single byte any number of contiguous bytes may be used.

  5. Binary code - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Binary_code

    A binary coderepresents text, computer processor instructions, or any other datausing a two-symbol system. The two-symbol system used is often "0" and "1" from the binary number system. The binary code assigns a pattern of binary digits, also known as bits, to each character, instruction, etc. For example, a binary stringof eight bits (which is ...

  6. List of binary codes - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_binary_codes

    This is a list of some binary codes that are (or have been) used to represent text as a sequence of binary digits "0" and "1". Fixed-width binary codes use a set number of bits to represent each character in the text, while in variable-width binary codes, the number of bits may vary from character to character.

    See media help. The International Radiotelephony Spelling Alphabet or simply Radiotelephony Spelling Alphabet, commonly known as the NATO phonetic alphabet, is the most widely used set of clear-code words for communicating the letters of the Roman alphabet. Technically a radiotelephonic spelling alphabet, it goes by various names, including ...

  8. List of file signatures - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_file_signatures

    This is a list of file signatures, data used to identify or verify the content of a file. Such signatures are also known as magic numbersor Magic Bytes. Many file formats are not intended to be read as text. If such a file is accidentally viewed as a text file, its contents will be unintelligible. However, some file signatures can be ...

  9. Units of information - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Units_of_information

    In digital computing and telecommunications, a unit of information is the capacity of some standard data storage system or communication channel, used to measure the capacities of other systems and channels. In information theory, units of information are also used to measure information contained in messages and the entropy of random variables.
