dude if u want u can read about ascii and unicode as much as u want. But wikipedia has some real good articles about them.

ascci uses 7bits, not 8. the highest bit is NOT used.

and if its 8bit then there are 256characters. 255 is just the highest value for an 8bit long block. UInt8= 0..255.

and that u point to the msdn. LOL
ascii, unicode are not from microsoft.

In short u are just a beginner, but u think u already know everything.

Academic source. Perhaps you should review the validity of the content first before saying wikipedia is a trustworthy source of information.

A unicode character is clearly not 64-bits - as you so pointed out in your initial post.

7 Bits, initial set.

Two complements signed integer. All positive values are used for the initial set.

8 bit, extended set.

Unsigned integer allowing the use of all values.

256 integral values represented. However, 0 is reserved as a null terminator. 255 possible values. More generally 2K-1.

I point to MSDN because its a credible source. Its not editable by anyone out there.

If you want, I can direct you to the java language where they use unicode as the primitive character type - which is clearly not 64-bit.

Assumptions. Perhaps I dont know everything, but you've demonstrated your lack of knowledge about the subject. Furthermore, when intending to insult someone, you may want to use the English language a bit more appropriately, otherwise it just looks bad on your part.

OMG, plz finally start actually informing yourself. But us stop here.

My last words :-)

Unicode encoding is not an easy feat.

As for Ascii, yes there is an extended Ascii, but its an common error to believe that extended Ascii is an newer Ascii. NO its not. Ascii has and will ever use 7bit +1bit padding on most maschines.


the 0byte is an character in Unicode, Ascii and extended Ascii known as terminator.

And my experience goes back into the times where dos was standard. But im quite happy that i never had to write unicode libraries.
And yes english is not my first language.

Whilst I think MaxOff wasn't exactly very polite, criticizing someone's english when it isn't his first language isn't appropriate either.
