By the way, might we - - - perhaps EBCDIC ???
It is much better than ASCII because it sorts numbers where they belong,
behind the letters and not in front of them.
And please keep a space not a tab and no printable character in column one.
I need it for printcontrol.
EBCDIC has got all the graphic characters you ever need. It is a standart
and it is multiplatform.
Any comments?
Well, you left out my personal favorite: In ASCII:
'z' - 'a' + 1 = 26
but in EBCDIC:
'z' - 'a' + 1 = 41
(or something close to that - it has been a while since I had to deal
with EBCDIC.)
With cool properties like this, EBCDIC sure seems like a winner to me...
lol and rofl favoured :)
Agreed!
