codesnonprintable
Codesnonprintable is a term used to describe character codes that are not intended to render visible glyphs in typical text displays. It includes ASCII control characters (the C0 range U+0000 to U+001F and the delete code U+007F) and, in environments that implement ISO/IEC 6429, the C1 control set (U+0080 to U+009F). In Unicode, many formatting and control characters are classified as nonprinting and may influence layout, direction, or typography without producing a visible symbol.
Common examples of codesnonprintable include NUL (U+0000), BEL (U+0007), CR (U+000D), and LF (U+000A); the soft hyphen
Applications of codesnonprintable span text processing, terminal control, and data sanitization. They are essential for formatting,
Handling typically involves detecting and either removing, escaping, or preserving only the intended subset of nonprintable
