<div dir="ltr">Greetings ndnSIM friends,<div><br></div><div>My previous assumption was that the content names (e.g., as obtained from interest.getName(), say in onContentStoreMiss in the forwarder class) were numbers using hexadecimal from beyond the prefix, so /prefix/FE%01, 02, 03, 04, ...... etc.</div><div><br></div><div>But I'm starting to realize some of the content names for larger content space items seem to be all over the place. I've seen "t" and "q" and "N" in names, which are of course outside the hexadecimal range for sure.</div><div><br></div><div>So, I suppose my question is: is there any reasonably thorough documentation or information available to know the predictable format of names?</div><div><br></div><div>So, if I'm using Zipf-Mandelbrot for example, I should think I'd be able to know the name of the <i>i</i> = 10,000th item without even running a scenario. I assume they're predictable, in other
words. </div><div><br></div><div>Any help would be greatly appreciated.</div><div><br></div><div><br></div><div>Thanks,</div><div><br></div><div>John</div></div>
