Fffe - Representations of Byte Order Marks By Encoding

Representations of Byte Order Marks By Encoding

This table illustrates how BOMs are represented as byte sequences and how they might appear in a text editor that is interpreting each byte as a legacy encoding (CP1252 and symbols for the C0 controls):

Encoding Representation (hexadecimal) Representation (decimal) Bytes as characters
UTF-8 EF BB BF 239 187 191 
UTF-16 (BE) FE FF 254 255 þÿ

Famous quotes containing the words representations of, order and/or marks:

    “Dreams are distorted representations of desire. So are dream- analyses.”
    —Mason Cooley (b. 1927)

    “The fact that behavior is “normal,” or consistent with childhood development, does not necessarily make it desirable or acceptable...Undesirable impulses do not have to be embraces as something good in order to be accepted as normal. Neither does children’s behavior that is unacceptable have to be condemned as “bad,” in order to bring it under control.”
    —Elaine Heffner (20th century)

    “Semantically, taste is rich and confusing, its etymology as odd and interesting as that of “style.” But while style—deriving from the stylus or pointed rod which Roman scribes used to make marks on wax tablets—suggests activity, taste is more passive.... Etymologically, the word we use derives from the Old French, meaning touch or feel, a sense that is preserved in the current Italian word for a keyboard, tastiera.”
    —Stephen Bayley, British historian, art critic. “Taste: The Story of an Idea,” Taste: The Secret Meaning of Things, Random House (1991)
