How it works
Computers store text as numbers. UTF-8, the encoding almost the whole internet uses, turns each character into one or more bytes of eight bits. What you see here is your name exactly as a computer keeps it, capitals and all: change one letter’s case and the bits change with it.
Plain English letters fit in one byte each. Accented letters take two: type José and watch the é unfold into sixteen bits.
