Ascii Codes and MS Word Shortcuts
ASCII, stands for American Standard Code for Information Interchange. It's a 7-bit character
code where every single bit represents a unique character. It is a code for representing 128
English characters as numbers, with each letter assigned a number from 0 to 127. For example, the ASCII
code for uppercase M is 77. Most computers use ASCII codes to represent text, which makes it possible
to transfer data from one computer to another.
