Write a note on ASCII code.

Question 1

Question 2

ASCII (**** Standard Code for Information Interchange) is the most widely used coding system to represent data.
ASCII is used on many personal computers and minicomputers.
ASCII is a 7-bit code that permits 2⁷ = 128 distinct characters. The 128 different combinations that can be represented in 7 bits are plenty to allow for all the letters, numbers and special symbols.
An eight bit was added. This allowed extra 128 characters to be represented. The extra 128 combinations are used for symbols such as , , è, , ®, , etc.
