Syntactic/invariant character set 00640
With only a few exceptions, each EBCDIC code page contains a common set of graphic characters. Within an encoding scheme, the common characters can be found at the same code points. However, there are exceptions.
The exceptions are as follows:
- EBCDIC code page 290 has Katakana characters at the code points where lowercase a through z are in the invariant character set.
- EBCDIC code page 905 where the quotation mark (
"
) is not at the same code point as it is in the invariant character set. - EBCDIC code page 1026 where the quotation mark (
"
) is not at the same code point as it is in the invariant character set. - EBCDIC code page 420 does not contain the invariant character SM040000
(asterisk (
*
)). However, code page 420 has a similar character named SM040007 ( ) at the same code point where SM040000 normally exists. - EBCDIC code page 420 does not contain the invariant character SM020000
(percent sign (
%
)). However, code page 420 has a similar character named SM020007 ( ) at the same code point where SM020000 normally exists.
