Generate text with symbols. Make your firends think a bit more about what you say by using text symbols.

generate text with symbols

This text generator uses the widest variety of symbols out of all tools I've got on my website, but because of this, the text doesn't look as styled to look best together. Anyway, the text it makes reminds my of graffiti. It looks just cooler, although a bit less readable. So it goes for both of those things I just talked about, that you have to pay with one thing to get more of the other. Encool uses text characters you can find in Cool text Symbols for Facebook ツ and Foreign language Letters.

Pragmatic Unicode. Created 10 March 2012 This is a presentation I gave at PyCon 2012.

Pragmatic Unicode

You can read the slides and text on this page, or open the actual presentation in your browser, or watch the video: Also, clicking the slide images will jump into the full presentation at that point. The Symbola font is included, but will have to be downloaded before some of the special symbols will appear. Python Bad Encoding Fixer. This is a module for making text less broken and more consistent.

Python Bad Encoding Fixer

It works in Python 2.6, Python 3.2, or later. The most interesting kind of brokenness that this resolves is when someone has encoded Unicode with one standard and decoded it with a different one. This often shows up as characters that turn into nonsense sequences: The word schön might appear as schön.An em dash (—) might appear as —.Text that was meant to be enclosed in quotation marks might end up instead enclosed in “ and ” (and that last character probably won’t even display as anything meaningful). This happens very often to real text. Any given text string might have other irritating properties, possibly even interacting with the erroneous decoding: Of course you’re better off if all the text you take as input is decoded properly and written in standard ways. Ftfy will do everything it can to fix the problem. Using ftfy The main function, fix_text, will run text through a sequence of fixes. Bug 18183: Python Encoding Detector.

Character encoding and Unicode in Python. Characters, Symbols and the Unicode Miracle - Computerphile. L’encoding en Python, une bonne fois pour toute. J’avais oublié la zik, je rajoute: Vous avez tous un jour eu l’erreur suivante : UnicodeDecodeError: 'machine' codec can't decode character 'trucmuche' in position x: ordinal not in range(z) Et là, pour vous en sortir, vous en avez chié des ronds de pâté.

L’encoding en Python, une bonne fois pour toute

Le problème vient du fait que la plupart du temps, ignorer l’encoding marche : nous travaillons dans des environnements homogènes et toujours avec des données dans le même format, ou un format plus ou moins compatible. Mais le texte, c’est compliqué, terriblement compliqué, et le jour où ça se gâte, si vous ne savez pas ce que vous faites, vous ne vous en sortirez pas. C’est d’autant plus vrai en Python car : Par défaut, Python plante sur les erreurs d’encoding là où d’autres langages (comme le PHP) se débrouillent pour vous sortir un truc (qui ne veut rien dire, qui peut corrompre toute votre base de données, mais qui ne plante pas).Python est utilisé dans des environnements hétérogènes.

Règle numéro 1 : Le texte brut n’existe pas.
