What is the ASCII Table?

ASCII (American Standard Code for Information Interchange) is a character encoding standard that assigns numbers 0-127 to letters, digits, punctuation, and control characters. The ASCII table is a fundamental reference for understanding character encoding, binary data, and how computers represent text. This reference shows all 128 ASCII characters with decimal, hex, octal, and binary values.

Common Use Cases

•Looking up ASCII codes for specific characters
•Understanding control characters in binary protocols
•Converting between character representations (hex, decimal, binary)
•Debugging character encoding issues in data transmission
•Learning how computers represent text at the byte level

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the difference between ASCII and Unicode?

ASCII defines 128 characters (0-127) covering English letters, digits, and basic punctuation. Unicode extends this to over 149,000 characters covering virtually all writing systems, emoji, and symbols. ASCII characters are the same in Unicode (UTF-8 is backward compatible with ASCII).

What are ASCII control characters?

Characters 0-31 and 127 are control characters — non-printable codes originally used to control devices. Common ones: 0 (NUL/null terminator), 9 (TAB), 10 (LF/newline), 13 (CR/carriage return), and 27 (ESC/escape).
