Common questions

Why is each character 8 bits?

Standard ASCII and the first UTF-8 range use one 8-bit byte per character. Larger Unicode characters use more bytes.

Does it need spaces between bytes?

No. It accepts spaces, commas, or no separator as long as the binary comes in clean 8-bit groups.
