character set
(foldoc) | character set
A particular mapping between characters and
byte strings, i.e. the combination of a particular
character encoding (which maps between byte strings and
integers) and a particular coded character set (which maps
between integers and characters).
For example: ASCII (the ASCII coded character set, encoded
directly as single-byte values), or UTF-8 (the Unicode
coded character set, encoded with an 8-bit transformation
method).
The character repertoire is the complete set of all
characters in the character set.

coded character set
(foldoc) | coded character set
A mapping, generally 1:1, from a set of
integers, known as character codes or code positions, to
a set of characters that may include letters, digits,
punctuation, control codes, mathematical and typographic
symbols.
There are several standard coded character sets, the most
widely used is ASCII, generally in its Latin-1 dialect,
with Unicode becoming slowly more common; while EBCDIC and
Baudot are extinct except in legacy systems.

ISO 10646
ISO/IEC 10646-1
UCS
(UCS, ISO/IEC 10646) A 1993 ISO and
IEC standard character set, also known as "Universal
Multiple-Octet Coded Character Set".
UCS comes in a 16-bit variant called UCS-2 and a 32-bit
variant called UCS-4, which is composed of 16-bit UCS-2
"planes". So far only one 16-bit plane has been defined,
which is known as the Basic Multilingual Plane.
The implementation of UCS is still in its infancy, though some
moves, such as the Java language defining a character to be
16 bits, are suggestive.
