Base64 Encodings Base64-encoding is commonly used for storing arbitrary binary data in pure strings, by mapping it to 64 ASCII characters. Use Base64
Linux File-Permissions Encodings Linux (or other UNIX-ish systems) use 4 groups of 3 bits to represent basic file permissions. The first group sets the flags set UID, set GID, and sticky. The last three groups set the file-permissions for the owner user, the owner group, and everyone else in that order. Here the 3 bits stand for read, write, and execute. On directories execute stands for open / navigate into. Use Linux File-Permissions
URL-Encoding Encodings Encode and decode strings to and from URL-encoding (or Percent-encoding). Use URL-Encoding
