The following table illustrates the invariant character set (character set 00640).
With only a few exceptions, each EBCDIC code page contains a common set of graphic characters. Within an encoding scheme, the common characters can be found at the same code points. The following EBCDIC code pages are exceptions:
- EBCDIC code page 290 has Katakana characters at the code points where lowercase a through z are in the invariant character set
- EBCDIC code page 905, where the quotation mark (") is not at the same code point as it is in the invariant character set
- EBCDIC code page 1026, where the quotation mark (") is not at the same code point as it is in the invariant character set
- EBCDIC code page 420 does not contain the invariant character SM040000
(asterisk (*)). However, code page 420 has a similar character
named SM040007 (
) at the same code point where SM040000 normally
exists. - EBCDIC code page 420 does not contain the invariant character SM020000
(percent sign ( %)). However, code page 420 has a similar
character named SM020007 (
) at the same code point where SM020000 normally
exists.
