What is ASCII?

ASCII (American Standard Code for Information Interchange) is a character encoding standard for electronic communication. ASCII codes represent text in computers, telecommunications equipment, and other devices.

Most modern character-encoding schemes are based on ASCII, although they support many additional characters. For example, UTF-8 is backwards compatible with ASCII for the first 128 characters.

Control Characters (0-31)

The first 32 characters are non-printing control codes used to control hardware peripherals. Famous examples include `NULL`, `Line Feed` (\n), and `Carriage Return` (\r).

Printable Characters (32-126)

These represent digits, uppercase and lowercase letters, and punctuation marks. 32 is the `Space` character, and 126 is the `Tilde` (~).

Decimal & Hex

Developers often need to convert between character representation and their numeric counterparts in different bases like Decimal (Base 10) or Hexadecimal (Base 16).

Extended ASCII (128-255)

Standard ASCII uses 7 bits. Extended ASCII uses 8 bits to provide 128 more characters like accented letters, currency symbols, and drawing characters.

Control ranges are not visible characters. They are command codes used by systems and terminals.
Standard ASCII covers 0-127. Extended sets use 128-255 and vary by code page or platform.
