How to encoding character DATA?

      The data encodings discussed have been for numerical representation of unsigned integers. It's text such as that printed on this page. The American Standard Code for Information Interchange (ASCII) is a 7 bits code used for encoding the Latin Alphabet.  ASCII contains ip-percase letters, lowercase letters, punctuation marks, numericals, printer control codes, and special symbols. However 8 bits are normally used to encode an ASCII character.


      From table upper "Hello World!" represent in ASCII is "0X48 0X65 0X6C 0X6C 0X6F 0X20 0X57 0X6F 0X72 0X6C 0X64 0X21" It's very easy! notice that the string contains a space character (0X20) and an exclamation mark "!" (0X21). Try to represent your name in ASCII ! Have Fun!
