ISO/IEC 6937 - Single Byte Characters

Single Byte Characters

The primary set of ISO6937/2 is based on ISO646 (characters 0x00..0x7f) with the exception of character 0x24 ($) which is denoted as a "general currency sign" (¤):

!"#¤%&`*+'-./0123456789:;<=>?@ ABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZ^_` abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyz{|}

The supplementary set (characters 0x80..0xff) contains a selection of spacing and non-spacing graphic characters, additional symbols and some locations reserved for future standardisation.

Famous quotes containing the words single and/or characters:

    I would strenuously urge a single term of six years.
    Rutherford Birchard Hayes (1822–1893)

    Waxed-fleshed out-patients
    Still vague from accidents,
    And characters in long coats
    Deep in the litter-baskets
    All dodging the toad work
    By being stupid or weak.
    Philip Larkin (1922–1986)
