Understanding Character Encoding

ASCII Encoding

7-bit encoding system supporting 128 characters, including letters, numbers, and special characters.

UTF-8

Modern encoding that extends ASCII to support international characters and symbols.

Binary Representation

Each character is represented by a unique binary pattern for computer processing.

Applications

Used in programming, data processing, and communication protocols.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is ASCII?

ASCII (American Standard Code for Information Interchange) is a character encoding standard that represents text in computers and other devices.

Why are ASCII codes important?

ASCII codes are fundamental to computer systems, providing a standardized way to represent text characters in digital format.

What's the difference between ASCII and UTF-8?

ASCII is a 7-bit encoding supporting 128 characters, while UTF-8 is a variable-width encoding that can represent all Unicode characters while maintaining compatibility with ASCII.
