๐Ÿ”ฃ ASCII Table

Feldwor edited this page Oct 25, 2021 · 4 revisions

ASCII stands for American Standard Code for Information Interchange.
Below is the ASCII character table, including descriptions of the first 32 characters.

ASCII was originally designed for use with teletypes, and so the descriptions are somewhat obscure and their use is frequently not as intended.

Dec = Decimal Value
Char = Character
