    //  The string now contains: "é é é"

    //  If encoded to hex using the iso-8859-1 charset, 
    //  each é char is represented in 1 byte.
    //  Output: E920E920E9
    console.log(sb.GetEncoded("hex","iso-8859-1"));

    //  If encoded to hex using the utf-8 charset, 
    //  each é char is represented in 2 bytes.
    //  Output: C3A920C3A920C3A9
    console.log(sb.GetEncoded("hex","utf-8"));

    //  Here's utf-16
    //  Output: E9002000E9002000E900
    console.log(sb.GetEncoded("hex","utf-16"));

    //  utf-32
