Looking at how computers are able to store words in their memory using the ASCII character set. Choose a short phrase with at least 2 words and then convert each character in that phrase to hexadecimal using the ASCII table provided in this module. Make sure that you also convert any spaces and punctuation in your chosen phrase! In your post, tell me what phrase you chose and then write out the hexadecimal representation of that phrase with spaces between each hex number. For example, lets say the phrase I choose is "Hello World". To convert that to hexadecimal, I would bring up the ASCII table and look up each character in my phrase. First I would look up "H" and see that it has the code 48. Then I would look up "e", which has the code 65. Then "l", which becomes 6C. I would continue this way until I have converted the whole phrase to hexadecimal (including the space between the words, which has code 20). The complete encoded phrase ends up being: 48 65 6C 6C 6F 20 57 6F 72 6C 64 H e l l o W o r l d

In the fascinating world of computing, there exists a hidden language that allows computers to understand and store the words we input, known as the ASCII character set. It's a key to the digital realm, where every character, from letters to punctuation, has its unique code. Imagine a phrase, as simple as "Hello World," transformed into a series of mysterious numbers and letters.
