 #### Character Encoding
 
-cJSON only supports UTF-8 encoded input and will always produce UTF-8 as output (If the input contained invalid UTF-8, it will most likely propagate it through to the output, thereby making the output non-valid UTF-8).
+cJSON only supports UTF-8 encoded input. In most cases it doesn't reject invalid UTF-8 as input though, it just propagates it through as is. As long as the input doesn't contain invalid UTF-8, the output will always be valid UTF-8.
 
 #### C Standard
 
 cJSON is written in ANSI C (or C89, C90). If your compiler or C library doesn't follow this standard, correct behavior is not guaranteed.
 
-NOTE: ANSI C is not C++ therefore it shouldn't be compiled by a C++ compiler. You can compile it with a C compiler and link it with your C++ code however. Although compiling with a C++ compiler might work, correct behavior is not guaranteed.

 #### Floating Point Numbers
 
-cJSON does not officially support any `double` implementations other than IEE754 double precision floating point numbers. It might still work with other implementations but bugs with these will be considered invalid.
