If you are going to be pedantic, go all the way. 2^21 is 0 to 2_097_151. Unicode codepoint range is 0 to 1_114_111, slightly more than 2^20 (0 to 1_048_575). I would argue that Unicode v2 onward; circa 1991 (Unicode Consortium and the ISO/IEC working together); is what anybody knows as Unicode with the 0 to 1_114_111 codepoints easily manipulated as a 32 bit value. I meant variable length encoding, RLE encodes a number of successive repetition indeed. |
