ASCII

"ASCII" (acronym for "American Standard Code for Information Interchange") was originally a 7-bit code which assigned a 7-bit number (0-127) to upper and lowercase letters, numbers and some special characters. The first 32 codes were reserved for control characters such as line feed, etc. ASCII is particularly common on smaller computers.
ASCII was expanded by IBM to 8 bits (numbers from 0-255) in order to be able to display additional special characters and block elements on PCs.
