I don't know why database commonly store data with encoding byte?
I have a question about databases. Why do they commonly store data with encoding byte? I don't really understand the reason behind it.
Encoding byte is used to represent a character in a database. It allows for efficient and consistent storage and retrieval of data. Without encoding, the database wouldn't know how to interpret the data and it would be difficult to search and sort.
