Summary

  • Replace all non-ASCII typographic characters across the repo (63 files, 186 lines) so the docs and code render correctly in any viewer, regardless of code page: -> --, / -> ->/<-, -> ..., 2ⁿ -> 2^n, £25 -> GBP 25, and drop the 📖 emoji from the README header
  • Fixes the †mojibake seen when UTF-8 files are decoded as Windows-1252/cp850

Test plan

  • Verified zero non-ASCII bytes remain in any tracked file
  • mvn -B verify passes locally (same command CI runs)

🤖 Generated with Claude Code

Em dashes, arrows, ellipses, superscript n, pound signs and an emoji
rendered as mojibake (e.g. 'â€"') in viewers using legacy code pages.
