The use of character sets and character mappings in Icon*

R. E. Griswold §

Department of Computer Science, The University of Arizona, Tucson, USA

This paper describes the properties and use of character sets and character mappings in the Icon programming language. Examples of programming techniques based on these features are given to illustrate paradigms for solving a variety of nonnumerical problems. Such solutions are characterised by efficiency and compact data representations.

Received April 1979.
