===ASCII code===
The [[American Standard Code for Information Interchange]] (ASCII), uses a 7-bit binary code to represent text and other characters within computers, communications equipment, and other devices. Each letter or symbol is assigned a number from 0 to 127. For example, lowercase "a" is represented by <code>1100001</code> as a bit string (which is "97" in decimal).
