What Does EOL Stand For?
EOL stands for End Of Line
EOL, or End Of Line, refers to a character or sequence of characters that signifies the end of a line of text in computing and programming contexts. It is essential for managing text formatting, file parsing, and data processing, as it indicates where one line concludes and another begins. EOL conventions can vary between different operating systems, typically represented by newline characters such as LF (Line Feed) in Unix-based systems, CR (Carriage Return) in older Mac systems, and CRLF (Carriage Return Line Feed) in Windows systems.
