ASCII 
  • It is an acronym for the American Standard Code for Information Interchange.
  • It is a standard seven-bit code that was first proposed by the American National Standards Institute or ANSI in 1963, and finalized in 1968 as ANSI Standard X3.4.
  • The purpose of ASCII was to provide a standard to code various symbols  ( visible and invisible symbols)
  • In the ASCII character set, each binary value between 0 and 127 represents a specific character.
  • Most computers extend the ASCII character set to use the full range of 256 characters available in a byte. The upper 128 characters handle special things like accented characters from common foreign languages.
  • In general, ASCII works by assigning standard numeric values to letters, numbers, punctuation marks and other characters such as control codes.
  • An uppercase "A," for example, is represented by the decimal number 65."
