RFC 9741: Concise Data Definition Language (CDDL): Additional Control Operators for the Conversion and Processing of Text

In plain English — editorial summary, not part of the RFC

The Concise Data Definition Language (CDDL), standardized in RFC 8610, provides "control operators" as its main language extension point. RFCs have added to this extension point in both an application-specific and a more general way. The present document defines a number of additional generally applicable control operators for text conversion (bytes, integers, printf-style formatting, and JSON) and for an operation on text.
