  2. ASCII - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ASCII

    ASCII reserves the first 32 code points (numbers 0–31 decimal) and the last one (number 127 decimal) for control characters. These are codes intended to control peripheral devices (such as printers), or to provide meta-information about data streams, such as those stored on magnetic tape. Despite their name, these code points do not represent ...

  4. Computer number format - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Computer_number_format

    Computer engineers often need to write out binary quantities, but in practice writing out a binary number such as 1001001101010001 is tedious and prone to errors. Therefore, binary quantities are written in a base-8, or "octal", or, much more commonly, a base-16, "hexadecimal" (hex), number format. In the decimal system, there are 10 digits, 0 ...

  6. Human-readable medium and data - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Human-readable_medium_and_data

    In computing, a human-readable medium or human-readable format is any encoding of data or information that can be naturally read by humans, resulting in human-readable data. It is often encoded as ASCII or Unicode text, rather than as binary data. In most contexts, the alternative to a human-readable representation is a machine-readable format ...

  7. Character encoding - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Character_encoding

    Punched tape with the word "Wikipedia" encoded in ASCII.Presence and absence of a hole represents 1 and 0, respectively; for example, W is encoded as 1010111.. Character encoding is the process of assigning numbers to graphical characters, especially the written characters of human language, allowing them to be stored, transmitted, and transformed using computers.

  8. Text file - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Text_file

    The ASCII character set is the most common compatible subset of character sets for English-language text files, and is generally assumed to be the default file format in many situations. It covers American English, but for the British pound sign , the euro sign , or characters used outside English, a richer character set must be used.

  9. Character (computing) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Character_(computing)

    A char in the C programming language is a data type with the size of exactly one byte, [6] [7] which in turn is defined to be large enough to contain any member of the "basic execution character set". The exact number of bits can be checked via CHAR_BIT macro. By far the most common size is 8 bits, and the POSIX standard requires it to be 8 ...
