👉 ASCII (American Standard Code for Information Interchange) is a standardized method for encoding text characters into binary code, allowing computers to process and store textual information. It assigns unique 7-bit codes to each character, symbol, number, and punctuation mark, ranging from 0 to 127. These codes are represented as sequences of 8-bit bytes, enabling computers to interpret and manipulate text data efficiently. ASCII supports a wide range of characters, including letters (both uppercase and lowercase), digits, punctuation, and control characters, forming the foundation of digital communication and data storage across various computing platforms.
