Character Set Encoding Maps - US-ASCII and ISO-8859-1/Latin 1

This section provides a tutorial example of analyzing and printing character set encoding maps for 2 encodings: US-ASCII and ISO-8859-1/Latin 1.

Here is the output of my sample program, EncodingAnalyzer2.java, for US-ASCII encoding with Java SE 7:

C:\herong>javac EncodingAnalyzer2.java

C:\herong>java EncodingAnalyzer2 US-ASCII
US-ASCII encoding:
00000000 > 00 - 0000007F > 7F
00000080 > 3F - 0010FFFF > 3F: Invalid range

Code Point > Byte Sequence - Code Point > Byte Sequence

The encoding map of US-ASCII is very simple:

Here is the output of my sample program, EncodingAnalyzer2.java, for ISO-8859-1/Latin 1 encoding with Java SE 7:

C:\herong>java EncodingAnalyzer2 ISO-8859-1
ISO-8859-1 encoding:
00000000 > 00 - 000000FF > FF
00000100 > 3F - 0010FFFF > 3F: Invalid range

Code Point > Byte Sequence - Code Point > Byte Sequence

The encoding map of ISO-8859-1/Latin 1 is also very simple:
