200 characters is 200 characters, unless you are talking about Unicode (which isn't Ascii).
Because that is the definition ASCII represents Latin characters of the English alphabet (there are no English characters) the character set is called "Latin" The 95 ASCII graphic characters are numbered from 0x20 to 0x7E (32 to 126 decimal). The space character is considered a non-printing graphic Visit the link below for some in depth information.
disadvantages of ASCII : maximum 128 characters that is not enough for some key boards having special characters. 7bit may not enough to represent larger values. advantage compare to EBCDIC are 7bit so quickly transferable in a fraction of time.
ASCII characters do represent a numerical codes of letters and other alphabetical signs. Computers do not understand only numbers so they use this numerical codes to interpret letters into their own "language".

The ASCII code 128 unique character ( 2 power 7 ). This was enough to represent all the (American and Britain English) characters in the keyboard. Here characters includes Alphabets, numbers, speical characters, symbols and Shift,ctrl,alt, tab (Non-Printable characters). Days rolled on. Other than American and British English, some other foreign languages occupied the space in the computer world. For ex, Korean, Japanesh. These languages extensively used more characters and symbols. Inorder to accompany all those letters/characters, the American Standard Institute enchanced the above ASCII code with one more bit. ie 2 power 8. So its now support 256 Unique characters. This is sufficient to represent all the characters in the all the countries languages. So this broadened ASCII is called Extended-Ascii. Regards, Rajan. P. Anna University.
Images created with printable ASCII characters is called an ASCII art. - Neeraj Sharma
ASCII standardizes characters between 0 and 127.
Extended ASCII is 8-bit encoding which is wider than standard ASCII and also includes all characters from standard ASCII encoding.ASCII is 7-bit, 128 possible values; Extended ASCII is 8-bit , 256 possible value;128 first characters of Extended ASCII is the same as ASCII, next 128 are additional. This why it is called Extended ASCII.What is ASCII?ASCII is mainly English language characters encoding, that is used for representation of text information.
The ASCII character set is a simple character set that can represent 128 different characters, including letters, numbers, punctuation marks, and control characters. Each character is represented by a 7-bit code, allowing for 128 unique combinations.
