encode

Function encode(text, encoding)

Takes 'text' in UTF-8 encoding, encodes into 'encoding' and into %-encoding, returns the resulting string.

Explanation

  • UTF-8: the wiki software and all its pages and output use UTF-8.
  • %-encoding: 1) encoded text is bound to contain invalid UTF-8 text and Scribunto does not allow modules to return invalid UTF-8 text (replaces any invalid bytes in the output with � ), 2) primary use of this function is to encode text for use in URLs (external links), for certain sites that use older encodings.

Custom encoder methods

Number difference

  • Paste input and output hex-numbers to LibreOffice Calc and sort by input
  • Convert base-16 to base-10 (e.g. with onlinenumbertools.com, toolslick.com, or see below custom converter)
  • Calculate difference (using references)
  • Sort by difference, color the background of repeating differences, sort by input
