Concept explainers
The American Standard Code for Information (ASCII) is used to encode characters of the alphabet as binary numbers. Each character is assigned an eight-digit binary number written in two groups of four digits as follows:
A–O are prefixed by 0100, and the second grouping starts with A = 0001, B = 0010, C = 0011, etc.
P–Z are prefixed by 0101, and the second grouping starts with P = 0000, Q = 0001, R = 0010, etc. For example, C = 0100 0011 and Q = 0101 0001.
For Exercises 65–68, write each word in ASCII code.
