ASCII (American Standard Code for Information Interchange), is a table of characters for computers. It is a character encoding standard that plays a crucial role in digital communication. Developed in the early 1960s, ASCII provides a means for computers and devices to represent text using numerical values. Each character, including letters, numbers, punctuation marks, and control characters, is assigned a unique binary number ranging from 0 to 127.
ASCII code plays a crucial role in computer communication. It enables computers to exchange text-based information efficiently and accurately. When you type a message on your keyboard, the characters are converted into ASCII codes and transmitted to the recipient's computer. The recipient's computer then decodes the ASCII codes and displays the message on the screen.
Below is the ASCII Code conversion table according to which Uppercase letters (A-Z) ranges between 65 and 90 and Lowercase letters (a-z) ranges between 97 and 122.
