    ASCII (American Standard Code for Information Interchange) is a character encoding system originally developed as a 7-bit code allowing 128 characters. It was later extended to 8-bits to include additional printable characters from 32-126 along with common control characters like backspace. The reference sheet shows the 8-bit binary representation and corresponding character for each number from 32 to 126.

    ASCII Reference Sheet 

    What is ASCII? 
    ASCII (American Standard Code for Information Interchange) is a widely used system for character encoding. It was
    originally developed in 1963 as a 7-bit system allowing for 128 characters. Symbols 0-31 and 127 were reserved for
    control characters (e.g. “Backspace” or “Delete”) with the numbers 32-126 being used for printable characters. As the 8-bit
    “byte” became standardized, ASCII was extended to the 8-bit format you see below.
