Just wondering how to get ascii value of character in haskell?

I have a sample file containg "aA0_- " characters on each one on a single. Sorting it using GNU sort gives the following sort order: $ cat /tmp/sample | sort _ - 0 a A after appending some other character, we obtain a different order (non-alphanumeric characters seems to have lower priority): $ cat /tmp/sample | sed 's/$/x/' | sort ...
Here's an oddity from the past! I'm writing an ASCII Pong game for the command prompt (Yes yes oldschool) and I'm writing to the video memory directly (Add. 0xB8000000) so I know I'm rendering quickly (As opposed to gotoxy and then printf rendering) My code works fine, the code compiles fine under Turbo C++ V1.01 BUT the animation lags...
I'm writing an old school ASCII DOS-Prompt game. Honestly I'm trying to emulate ZZT to learn more about this brand of game design (Even if it is antiquated) I'm doing well, got my full-screen text mode to work and I can create worlds and move around without problems BUT I cannot find a decent timing method for my renders. I know my ren...
I'm currently doing this to replace extended-ascii characters with their HTML-entity-number equivalents: s.encode('ascii', 'xmlcharrefreplace') What I would like to do is convert to the HTML-entity-name equivalent (i.e. © instead of ©). This small program below shows what I'm trying to do that is failing. Is there a way to ...
Here is some code which I use to pull a text file into a UITextView called textView. Because I can't always know the file's encoding ahead of time, I use the method -stringWithContentsOfFile:usedEncoding:error:, which stores an encoding value by reference. Once I have the encoding, I then open up the file and, if there's an error, prin...
Why does a file saved as UTF8 (in Notepad++) have this character in the beginning of the fstream I opened to it in my c++ program? ´╗┐ I have no idea what it is, I just know that it's not there when I save to ASCII. UPDATE: If I save it to UTF8 (without BOM) it's not there. How can I check the encoding of a file (ASCII or UTF8, ev...
Hello there, is there any simple/lightweight solution to change at least some of non-ASCII symbols to respective ASCII analogs? For example this string abc-åäö.txt should be changed to abc-aao.txt A bit of background: Zip-tools do not reliably support UTF-8, hence the need to downgrade. AFAICR Google "download attachments as sin...
I'm new to C++ and I'm trying to do something that should be pretty basic. I have a small loop in C++ that just displays a sequence of numbers and I would like to convert these numbers into specific ASCII characters. Something like this: for (int k = 0; k < 16; k++) { display(65+k); } And the result should look like t...

I have a global variable that is a *char. My main function header reads as int main(int argc, char* argv[argc]){...}. These two lines of code have to remain the way they are. The first argument of my main function is a number of type *char, that I convert to a char using atoi(...);. I am basically changing the ASCII value to its corresp...
What was the original historical use of the vertical tab character (\v in the C language, ASCII 11)? Did it ever have a key on a keyboard? How did someone generate it? Is there any language or system still in use today where the vertical tab character does something interesting and useful? ...
I have a string in my cocoa GUI that needs to have special formatting (fonts, colors, etc.). Naturally, I'm using an attributed string. For convenience, I Init the string as an RTF: NSString *inputString = @"This string has special characters"; NSString *rtfString = [NSString stringWithFormat:@"{@"***LENGTHY RTF FORMATTING STRING *** %@...
Does someone know a easy way to find characters in Unicode that are similar to ASCII characters. An example is the "CYRILLIC SMALL LETTER DZE (ѕ)". I'd like to do a search and replace for similar characters. By similar I mean human readable. You can't see a difference by looking at it. ...
I'm wanting to write an pre-interview question (for java, but that's not important) that has a different answer if you look at it vs if you copy-paste it and run it so that we can check if people actually do the problem manually. To do this, I'm trying to find a unicode character that will look the same as an ascii character on-screen ...
Im trying to parse a file in c# that has field (string) arrays separated by ascii character codes 0, 1 and 2 (in Visual Basic 6 you can generate these by using Chr(0) or Chr(1) etc.) I know that for character code 0 in c# you can do the following: char separator = '\0'; But this doesnt work for character codes 1 and 2? ...
