Matches in DBpedia 2014 for { ?s ?p UTF-16 (16-bit Unicode Transformation Format) is a character encoding for Unicode capable of encoding 1,112,064 numbers (called code points) in the Unicode code space from 0 to 0x10FFFF. The encoding is a variable-length encoding as code points are encoded with one or two 16-bit code units.The older UCS-2 (2-byte Universal Character Set) is a similar character encoding that was superseded by UTF-16 in version 2.0 of the Unicode standard in July 1996. UCS-2 produces a fixed-length format by simply using the code point as the 16-bit code unit. UTF-16 expands the code space significantly by using surrogate pairs to encode code points above 0xFFFF, and produces the same result as UCS-2 for all code points in the range 0-0xFFFF that had been or ever will be assigned a character.UTF-16 is officially defined in Annex Q of the international standard ISO/IEC 10646. It is also described in "The Unicode Standard" version 2.0 and higher, as well as in the IETF's RFC 2781.. }
