Description | The Unicode character U+000A, known as "Line Feed (LF)", is part of the "C0 Controls and Basic Latin" block and is categorized under the "Other, Control" category in the Unicode standard. This control character is commonly used in text files to represent a new line. In terms of functionality, it is typically used in Unix-based systems to indicate the end of a line of text. Its purpose is to tell a system where a line break should occur in a flow of text, essentially advancing the cursor to the next line without returning it to the beginning of the line. This function of marking line ends can also be seen in programming and other computer-related activities. |
