Where is ASCII used?
ASCII is used to determine which character to display when a keyboard key is pressed, or code entered.
What keyboard key or keys do you use to get a vertical bar?
The shifted back-slash key (not the slash key), usually located above the Enter key, will produce a vertical bar with most computer fonts. On the keyboard this vertical bar is usually shown broken in the middle. This is how that character looks in this font: | In the standard ASCII character set, this character is ASCII code 124 (decimal), which is 7C (hexadecimal, or hex).
What is value of enter key then how to get that value in c?
The new line character ('\n') has the ASCII value 10 decimal, 0x0A hexadecimal. In some cases, a new line may be preceded with a carriage-return (ASCII 13 decimal, 0x0D hexadecimal), however the carriage return is only of relevance to line printers. To determine when the enter key is pressed, capture the character via stdin and test for equality with the '\n' character.
How do you do accent marks on the letter A?
There is an ASCII code for any character, symbol, or other regular or accented letter.To use the ASCII code, hold down the [alt] key and type the four-digit code given in the linked ASCII codes chart.ex: the code [alt+ 0241] > ñThe method works in any text or word processing software.
What are the difference between ascii-7 and ascii-8?
According to this site.. (http://www.roysac.com/blog/2008/09/what-is-ascii-art-what-is-ansi-and-more.html)What is 7-Bit ASCII?The difference between 7-bit and 8-bit ASCII is pretty simple, assuming that you have a keyboard with the latin alphabet. 7-bit only uses characters that you can find on the keyboard. 8-bit uses additional characters that you cannot find on your keyboard, but which exist in "text mode" of the old MS DOS operating system. MS DOS hat 256 characters for text mode. Some of them are control chracters and not visible, such as Carriage Return, Line Feed (Line Break), the Tab character or the Escape character. The standard US-ASCII characters are the first 128 chracters of the character set, where 97 of them are usable for text and ASCII art.What is 8-Bit ASCII?8-bit ASCII art uses primarily characters after the 128 chracters of the US-ASCII character set. You cannot find those characters on your keyboard and could only generate them via programming code, special editors (like TheDraw or ACiDDraw4) or by pressing the ALT-Key and then type the character code (a number between 128 and 255) on your numeric keypad, while keeping the ALT-Key pressed. Those upper or "higher" characters are suitable for basic graphical elements, such as box borders, corners. Those characters are unique to the IBM PC and MS DOS and are not compatible with other operating systems, such as UNIX, Linux or MAC OS.

What is the purpose of ASCII?
The American Standard Code for Information Interchange was made to standardize 128 numeric codes that represent the English letters, Symbols, and Numbers. Any USA keyboard is made with this standard in mind.
When a key is pressed on the keyboard which standard is used for converting the keystroke into the corresponding bits?
ascii
How do you enter ASCII characters?
You type it. - in a way that is correct, but perhaps not over helpful. ASCII = American Standard Code for Information Interchange. Over the life of computers, there have been several standards for encoding letters and numbers into binary strings ('0' and '1'). Early computers only had 4 bits for each character, this has slowly increased to the current 8 bits per character. Each standard has a name, ASCII is the name for the arrangement most commonly used today. Though that is not quite accurate, first there are two ASCII codes, there is 7-bit ASCII and there is 8-bit ASCII, both with the same name. Also, most people use Microsoft Windows, and Microsoft do not actually follow the ASCII standard completely, some of the characters in Windows are different to ASCII on other platforms. Hence a common name used of 'MS-ASCII' when network technicians need to define which they are using, or converting. If you have a modern small computer (Desktop, Notebook etc with Windows, Linux or MAC) it uses ASCII already, you do not need to do anything to get it. If you happen to own an IBM mainframe then this uses EBCDIC coding which is different - but the system includes all the code needed to automatically convert files between the various codes for you.
