ASCII Code 


HTML Entity 


Hexadecimal value 


These are all referring to the same thing but are represented in different ways. They all translate to Unicode U+0000A LINE FEED (LF)

Example:

The number 2 can be represented using 1+1. It can also be represented using |sqrt(4)|. The result is the same, but using different syntaxes we can achieve the same result in different ways.
