The ASCII Character Set

The ASCII character set assigns numeric values to 128 English language characters, including letters, numbers, punctuation, and control codes. It displays each character, its assigned value, and a brief name or description. This includes common symbols like !, ", #, and % as well as non-printed control codes like NUL, SOH, STX, and others between values 0-31. The ASCII character set established a standard mapping for encoding text in digital computers and communications.
