  2. Unicode - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Unicode

    Unicode text is processed and stored as binary data using one of several encodings, which define how to translate the standard's abstracted codes for characters into sequences of bytes. The Unicode Standard itself defines three encodings: UTF-8, UTF-16, and UTF-32, though several others exist.

  3. The Code (Nemo song) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Code_(Nemo_song)

    The idea of binary code is used within the song to display Nemo's non-conformance to a binary gender system. "The Code" was written by Benjamin Alasu, Lasse Midtsian Nymann, Linda Dale, and Nemo Mettler, [1] and was composed at a SUISA songwriting camp. [2]

    A replacement can also involve multiple consecutive symbols, as viewed in one encoding, when the same binary code constitutes one symbol in the other encoding. This is either because of differing constant length encoding (as in Asian 16-bit encodings vs European 8-bit encodings), or the use of variable length encodings (notably UTF-8 and UTF-16 ).

  5. BCD (character encoding) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/BCD_(character_encoding)

    BCD (binary-coded decimal), also called alphanumeric BCD, alphameric BCD, BCD Interchange Code, [1] or BCDIC, [1] is a family of representations of numerals, uppercase Latin letters, and some special and control characters as six-bit character codes.

  6. Binomial nomenclature - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Binomial_nomenclature

    In the zoological code (ICZN), the second part of the name is a "specific name". In the botanical code (ICNafp), it is a "specific epithet". Together, these two parts are referred to as a "species name" or "binomen" in the zoological code: or "species name", "binomial", or "binary combination" in the botanical code.

  7. Binary Golay code - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Binary_Golay_code

    Lexicographic code: Order the vectors in V lexicographically (i.e., interpret them as unsigned 24-bit binary integers and take the usual ordering). Starting with w 0 = 0, define w 1, w 2, ..., w 12 by the rule that w n is the smallest integer which differs from all linear combinations of previous elements in at least eight coordinates.

  8. Line code - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Line_code

    Each transmitted code word in a constant-weight code is designed such that every code word that contains some positive or negative levels also contains enough of the opposite levels, such that the average level over each code word is zero. Examples of constant-weight codes include Manchester code and Interleaved 2 of 5. Use a paired disparity ...

  9. Ternary computer - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ternary_computer

    One early calculating machine, built entirely from wood by Thomas Fowler in 1840, operated in balanced ternary. [4] [5] [3] The first modern, electronic ternary computer, Setun, was built in 1958 in the Soviet Union at the Moscow State University by Nikolay Brusentsov, [6] [7] and it had notable advantages over the binary computers that eventually replaced it, such as lower electricity ...
