ASCII, the acronym for the “American Standard Code for Information Interchange” is the first character-encoding scheme used between computers on the Internet.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Modern character encoding schemes like UTF-8 and ISO-8859 are built on ASCII.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The ASCII Character Set<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

ASCII Character Set was designed in the ’60s, as a standard character set for computers and hardware devices, such as printers and tape drives.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Originally ASCII is based on the English alphabet, and it’s a 7-bit character set containing 128 characters: the numbers 0-9, uppercase and lowercase English letters from A to Z, some basic punctuation symbols and some special characters.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The character sets used in modern computers, HTML, and Internet are all based on ASCII.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Below, you can find table lists that contain 128 ASCII characters and their equivalent HTML entity codes<\/p>\n\n\n\n

ASCII Device Control Characters<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

The ASCII device control characters (except horizontal tab, line feed, and carriage return) have nothing to do inside an HTML document. Originally ASCII control characters (range 00-31, plus 127) were designed to control hardware devices.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
