Chapter 1, Problem 3E
Program Plan Intro
ASCII character Set:
The ASCII is stands for “American Standard Code for Information Interchange”.
- It uses 128 unique characters which represent the English letters, punctuation marks and other characters.
- It uses seven bits to represent each character in the set. Check bit is used as the eighth bit to ensure proper data transmission.
- Extended ASCII character version includes the eighth bit and allows 256 unique characters, which includes some additional symbols and some accented letters.
- ASCII has a finite number of characters; so it lists them all and assigns binary string value to each one of them.
- ASCII character set as well as Unicode character set treats uppercase and lowercase letters distinctly.
- For example, the ASCII code for A is 65. When “A” is typed on keyboard, its equivalent ASCII value “65" will be automatically stored in the memory.
