Sep 15, 2014 at 3:52 comment added Ingo Bürk I could've sworn the default was UTF-8. 14 bytes it is, then.
Sep 14, 2014 at 20:35 comment added TwiN @IngoBürk As per meta.codegolf.stackexchange.com/a/961/6972 answers can be encoded in any encoding unless the OP states otherwise. There is indeed an IBM codepage for APL characters which is a single-byte mapping, which is exactly what Dyalog used to use before Unicode 3.0. If you insist on Unicode, what if I invent a new language that uses non-Unicode characters? How would you count bytes for that?
Sep 14, 2014 at 20:18 comment added Ingo Bürk but for code golf we count in UTF-8, not some special charset. That'd just be a loophole and could be abused very easily.
