<p class=note>"Whitespace" is a mass noun.

<div class=note>
<p>The XML, JSON, and parts of the HTTP specifications exclude U+000C FF in their definition of
whitespace:

<ul class=brief>
<li>[[xml10#NT-S|XML's S production]]
<li>[[JSON#section-2|JSON's ws production]]
<li>[=HTTP whitespace=]
</ul>

<p>Prefer using Infra's [=ASCII whitespace=] definition for new features, unless your specification
deals exclusively with XML/JSON/HTTP.
</div>

<p>A <dfn export>C0 control</dfn> is a <a>code point</a> in the range U+0000 NULL to
U+001F INFORMATION SEPARATOR ONE, inclusive.
