Which encoder creates ASCII?
ASCII (American Standard Code for Information Interchange) is a character-encoding scheme that was standardised in 1963. There is no encoder required to create ASCII. Every machine supports it as standard, although some implement it via UNICODE. The only difference is in the number of bytes used to represent each character. The default is one byte per character yielding 128 standard encodings that map exactly with the first 128 characters in UNICODE encoding.
What is the difference between ascii and ebcdic?
Due to the advancement of technology and our use of computers, the importance of ASCII and EBCDIC have all but ebbed. Both were important in the process of language encoding, however ASCII used 7 bits to encode characters before being extended where EBCDIC used 8 bits for that same process. ASCII has more characters than its counterpart and its ordering of letters is linear. EBCDIC is not. There are different versions of ASCII and despite this, most are compatible to one another; due to IBMs exclusive monopolization of EBCDIC, this encoding cannot meet the standards of modern day encoding schemes, like Unicode.
How do you convert letter Z into its bit pattern?
First you will need to know the character code being used, there are several:UnicodeUTF-8ASCIIMASCIIEBCDICBCDICHollerith punchcard codeRemington-Rand punchcard codeZone + Digit codesAPLFIELDATACDC display codeDEC Radix-50BAUDOTetc.Then you need to find Z in that character code's encoding table.
What is the difference between binary code and extendible binary code?
There is no such thing as extendible (sic) binary code. However, there are two known variants: eXtendable Binary (XB) is a universal file format used for serialising binary trees. Extended Binary Coded Decimal Interchange Code (EBCDIC) was an 8-bit character encoding used by IBM in the 1960's. It's a non-standard encoding that was used by IBM prior to them switching to ASCII peripherals.
What is 7-bit code?
7-bit code is an encoding scheme that uses just 7 bits. 7-bit encoding allows positive values in the range 0 through 127. ANSI is a 7-bit encoding scheme. When used on an 8-bit system, bit 7 is always zero (where bit 0 is always the least significant bit). Bit 7 is used by the ASCII extended character set, where the first 127 characters are the same as those defined by the ANSI character set. 7-bit encoding was often used in early tele-printing where bit 7 was not needed. In this way, they could encode eight 7-bit characters into a 56-bit package which could be transmitted and decoded by the 7-bit teleprinter -- the idea being that the fewer bits you transmit, the quicker it will be to send the data across a telephone line.
What is a character encoding standard?
Character encoding is the way that a computer interprets and then displays a file as text. Each encoding has its own set of characters that it can match to the file. For example, the Windows-1252 encoding, used for Western European languages, contains characters like accented vowels that are used in Spanish, French, etc. However, an encoding used for Russian family languages would include characters from the Cyrillic alphabet. Most encodings use 8 bits to encode a single character, which allows the encoding to contain up to 256 characters. Unicode is a newer encoding system that uses a significantly different system for character encoding that allows it to surpass the 256 character limit. Over 100,000 characters are currently supported by Unicode/UTF-8.
How ASCII is used in the computer?
ASCII is a form of character encoding, so it can be used by your computer for any task.

What is the base of a character?
In computer science, the "base" of a character typically refers to its character encoding, which defines a mapping between characters and numeric values (often in binary form) for representation in digital systems. The base can vary depending on the encoding scheme used, such as ASCII, Unicode, or UTF-8, determining how characters are stored and interpreted by computers.
Does a character take up one byte of storage?
An ASCII character requires one byte of storage. A Unicode character requires between one and four bytes of storage, depending on the encoding format used.
What encoding scheme is used by the 802.11a and 802.11g?
What encoding scheme is used by the 802.11a and 802.11g standards but not by the 802.11b standard?
What is the binary code for mike?
01101101011010010110101101100101 Assuming you are using ASCII encoding, using 8-bit characters on a Big Endian computer architecture, then it would be: 01101101 01101001 01101011 01100101 On a computer using Little Endian byte-order: 01100101 01101011 01101001 01101101 The binary representation of a character is heavily dependent on the particular character encoding method being used (ASCII was originally the most common encoding, with UTF-8 now superseding it)
How do you spell out the acronym MICR?
MICR means "Magnetic Ink Character Recognition" which is used widely for the encoding of bank account numbers and routing numbers printed on checks.
What does the American standard for information interchange mean?
You mean ASCII, the American Standard Code for Information Interchange. ASCII is a 7-bit encoding that is supported by all computer systems as standard. This makes it possible to send plain-text data between any two systems and know that it will interpreted correctly. Each encoding maps to a unique character (a glyph) or a control code, such that 0x41 through 0x5A represents all the capital letters in the English alphabet, 'A' through 'Z', while 0x61 to 0x7A represents all the lower case letters, 'a' through 'z'. The digits '0' though '9' are represented by 0x30 through 0x39. Common punctuation is also supported, as is whitespace, such as 0x20 for a single space and 0x09 for tab. Non-printing characters such as carriage return and line feed are also supported. there are 127 glyphs and control codes in the ASCII character set. Since ASCII uses only 7-bits, this conveniently leaves 1 bit free in an 8-bit byte. When this bit is on, the encoding maps to an extended ASCII table of 128 additional characters. This set of characters is system-dependant, but allows a complete set of 256 unique characters, where the first 127 are always the same. All English-based text can therefore be encoded in 7-bit ASCII alone. Non-English language support typically requires a much broader range of encodings, whether through the extended ASCII character set or through UNICODE encodings. However, ASCII is a subset of UNICODE so no matter how many bytes are used to represent an encoding, 7-bit ASCII data can always be interpreted correctly. The only additional information required is a byte-order mark (BOM) which determines whether the encoding is little-endian or big-endian, as well as the type of UNICODE employed in the encoding (UTF8, UTF16, UTF32 or UTF64). UTF8 is the most common form of UNICODE encoding in use today because it is a variable-length encoding and has no overhead with respect to ASCII-encoded data. If bit 8 is off, the encoding is simply interpreted as a 7-bit ASCII character, otherwise it is interpreted as an escape sequence, the value of which determines how many subsequent bytes are used to represent the full encoding. This could be anything from 1 to 6 additional bytes per character, each of which maps directly to a character in one of the UNICODE character sets, all of which incorporate the ASCII set.
What is that EBCDIC?
EBCDIC is Extended Binary Coded Decimal Interchange Code. It was the character encoding scheme developed and used by IBM. EBCDIC is completely overshadowed by ASCII and ASCII's big brother, Unicode. EBCDIC is very difficult to use, as the alphabet is non-contiguous and the encoding makes no logical sense.
How do you translate this binary code into letters 1101110100100010100110001010101001100101010101?
It's impossible to give you an answer for this unless you know what character encoding was used. Translating that to ASCII will give an entirely different answer than translating from Unicode.
