  2. Name mangling - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Name_mangling

    In the stdcall and fastcall mangling schemes, the function is encoded as _name@X and @name@X respectively, where X is the number of bytes, in decimal, of the argument(s) in the parameter list (including those passed in registers, for fastcall). In the case of cdecl, the function name is merely prefixed by an underscore.

  3. Binary-to-text encoding - Wikipedia

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

    The best-known is the string "From " (including trailing space) at the beginning of a line, used to separate mail messages in the mbox file format. By using a binary-to-text encoding on messages that are already plain text, then decoding on the other end, one can make such systems appear to be completely transparent. This is sometimes referred ...

  4. UTF-8 - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/UTF-8

    The default string primitive in Go, [50] Julia, Rust, Swift (since version 5), [51] and PyPy [52] uses UTF-8 internally in all cases. Python (since version 3.3) uses UTF-8 internally for Python C API extensions [53] [54] and sometimes for strings [53] [55] and a future version of Python is planned to store strings as UTF-8 by default.

  5. Base64 - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Base64

    This data encoding scheme is used to encode UTF-16 as ASCII characters for use in 7-bit transports such as SMTP. It is a variant of the Base64 encoding used in MIME. [9] [10] The "Modified Base64" alphabet consists of the MIME Base64 alphabet, but does not use the "=" padding character.

  6. Popularity of text encodings - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Popularity_of_text_encodings

    The decision to use any one encoding may depend on the language used for the documents, or the locale that is the source of the document, or the purpose of the document. Text may be ambiguous as to what encoding it is in, for instance pure ASCII text is valid ASCII or ISO-8859-1 or CP1252 or UTF-8. "Tags" may indicate a document encoding, but ...

  7. Cryptographic hash function - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cryptographic_hash_function

    Functions that lack this property are vulnerable to preimage attacks. Second pre-image resistance Given an input m 1, it should be difficult to find a different input m 2 such that hash(m 1) = hash(m 2). This property is sometimes referred to as weak collision resistance. Functions that lack this property are vulnerable to second-preimage attacks.

  8. Base36 - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Base36

    Base36 is a binary-to-text encoding scheme that represents binary data in an ASCII string format by translating it into a radix-36 representation.The choice of 36 is convenient in that the digits can be represented using the Arabic numerals 0–9 and the Latin letters A–Z [1] (the ISO basic Latin alphabet).

  9. Byte pair encoding - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Byte_pair_encoding

    Byte pair encoding [1] [2] (also known as BPE, or digram coding) [3] is an algorithm, first described in 1994 by Philip Gage, for encoding strings of text into smaller strings by creating and using a translation table. [4] A slightly-modified version of the algorithm is used in large language model tokenizers.
