CJKV Reference Guide
by Ken Lunde Ken Lunde (9781565924420)

"CJKV Reference Guide" is the companion volume to "CJKV Information Processing, the definitive guide for tackling the difficult issues faced when dealing with complex Asian languages -- Chinese, Japanese, Korean, and Vietnamese -- in the context of computing or Internet services. These two books together include newly updated material from Ken Lunde's first book, "Understanding Japanese Information Processing, as well as coverage of three additional languages. Unlike the English alphabet with a mere 26 letters, these complex writing systems often use multiple alphabets comprising thousands of characters. Handling such an unwieldy amount of data is formidable and complex. Until now, working with these writing systems was an unattainable task to most, but this book clarifies the issues, even to those who don't understand East Asian languages. This book provides extensive reference material for "CJKV Information Processing, such as character set tables, mapping tables, code conversion tables, and much more.
