What is ASCII?

ASCII (American Standard Code for Information Interchange) is a standard character encoding system that represents text characters as numerical values. Each character, letter, number, and symbol is assigned a unique numeric code, typically ranging from 0 to 127 for standard ASCII and 0 to 255 for extended ASCII.
