Encoding files
Most .tbl files below are generated by
scripts/generate_encodings.py from
Python's stdlib codecs. Run it to regenerate them, or with --check to
verify without writing.
Generated files start with a # Generated by ... comment. A .tbl file
without that comment is left alone, so you can add a hand-authored encoding
anywhere under encodings/ without touching the script.
Every name listed below is a file: encodings/<name>.tbl, lowercased and
otherwise unchanged, so #pragma encoding <name> works for any of them.
Encodings with identical entries share them with an -include line instead
of repeating them (every ASCII-transparent encoding includes ascii, for
example), and a file named after an alias holds a single -alias line.
Generated file encodings
Codepages: one byte per character. Usable as: file, string, or custom encoding.
| Name | Path | Description | Entries | Aliases |

jwasham/coding-interview-university
Coding Interview University is a GitHub repository maintained under the jwasham account that lays out a checklist-based study plan for the computer science fundamentals a software engineering interview tests. It covers sorting, trees, and graphs as a required track, then an explicitly optional back half on system design and extra tree structures for engineers with more experience. The README frames it as the author's own multi-month self-study process, later published for others to follow, and community members have translated it into multiple languages.
