Abstract
In rows (1) of data elements (11, 12), there may occur special data elements, such as control characters. By replacing each special data element (12) by a replacement data element (14), which contains a positional indication of a next special data element (12′) and which does not correspond to a special data element (12), it is possible to reproducibly remove all special data-elements from the row (1) without the length of the row increasing essentially. only one single supplementary data element (13) is required for transmitting the positional indication of the first special data element.
