ASCII Table

What is ASCII?

ASCII is the full form of American Standard Code for Information Interchange, is a character encoding standard.

Example for ASCII code

A computer is an electronic machine which is capable of understanding only a numeric value's of 0's and 1's. If a user is typed a string "hello", then computer will convert this code into binary codes of 0's and 1's. i.e) Hello ---> 01101000 01100101 01101100 01101100 01101111. which is also a ASCII code in binary digits.

Purpose of ASCII code:

ASCII code was originally designed for use with teletypes purpose i.e) encoding the human readable data for security purpose. i.e) "hello" is human readable, but not 01101000 01100101 01101100 01101100 01101111 is what ASCII code's main purpose.
