Difference between Character Map (Windows) and Character encoding

Character Map (Windows) vs. Character encoding

Character Map is a utility included with Microsoft Windows operating systems and is used to view the characters in any installed font, to check what keyboard input (Alt code) is used to enter those characters, and to copy characters to the clipboard in lieu of typing them. Character encoding is used to represent a repertoire of characters by some kind of encoding system.
