8: ASCII is an acronym for the American Standard Code for Informa-
9: tion Interchange. It is a table of seven-bit binary numbers that
10: encode the letters of the alphabet, numerals, punctuation, and
11: the most commonly used control sequences for printers and ter-
12: minals. ASCII codes are used on all microcomputers sold in the
13: United States.
14:
15: The following table gives the ASCII characters in octal, decimal,
16: and hexadecimal numbers, their definitions, and expands ab-
17: breviations where necessary.
