FAQ

ASCII (American Standard Code for Information Interchange) is a character encoding standard that assigns numbers 0–127 to characters, including letters, digits, punctuation, and control characters.

In this tool, each character is represented as a decimal number (0–127). Multiple characters are separated by spaces, e.g. 'Hi' becomes '72 105'.

Standard ASCII only covers codes 0–127. Extended characters (128–255) are shown as their numeric values but may differ between encodings.
