ASCI

ASCII (American Standard Code for Information Interchange) is a standardized system that assigns unique numerical codes to represent text characters, such as letters, digits, punctuation, and control signals, in electronic devices. It uses 7 bits per character, allowing for 128 possible codes. This encoding enables computers and communication systems to reliably exchange text data by translating characters into numbers and vice versa. ASCII is fundamental to digital communication and forms the basis for more complex encoding systems. It ensures consistency and compatibility across different devices and software when processing textual information.
