ASCII is a 7 bit code. There are many nonstandard extensions of ASCII to 8 or 9 bits by various computer companies.
ASCII was developed to replace the obsolete 6 bit BAUDOT teletype code and was never originally intended for use on computers.
ASCII is a 7 bit code developed and standardized by the telegraph industry for use on teletypes as a replacement for their older Baudot 5 bit code. The computing industry when they adopted ASCII extended it in several different nonstandard ways to an 8 bit code because after 1964 (when the IBM System 360 was introduced) the standard computer memory unit had become the 8 bit byte.
There were 7 articles in the original Constitution.
7 original articles, + 27 amendments
there are 48 original states but i am only in gr.7 so i dont really know :P St.Francis school there are 48 original states but i am only in gr.7 so i dont really know :P St.Francis school

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.
7-bit ASCII
ASCII = 7 bit Unicode = 16 bits UTF-8 =8 bit
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.

All ASCII character sets have exactly 128 characters, thus only 7-bits are required to represent each character as an integer in the range 0 to 127 (0x00 to 0x7F). If additional bits are available (most systems use at least an 8-bit byte), all the high-order bits must be zeroed. ANSI is similar to ASCII but uses 8-bit encodings rather than 7-bit encodings. If bit-7 (the high-order bit of an 8-bit byte) is not set (0), the 8-bit encoding typically represents one of the 128 standard ASCII character codes (0-127). If set (1), it represents a character from the extended ASCII character set (128-255). To ensure correct interpretation of the encodings, most ANSI code pages are standardised to include the standard ASCII character set, however the extended character set depends upon which ANSI code page was active during encoding and the same code page must be used during decoding. ANSI typically caters for US/UK-English characters (using ASCII) along with foreign language support, mostly European (Spanish, German, French, Italian). Languages which require more characters than can be provided by ANSI alone must use a multi-byte encoding, such as fixed-width UNICODE or variable-width UTF-8. However, these encodings are standardised such that the first 128 characters (the standard ASCII character set) have the same 7-bit representation (with all high-order bits zeroed).
There are several codes. One of the older ones is the American Standard Code for Information Interchange (ASCII). It used a 7-bit code which permitted 128 characters. When that number was found to be inadequate the American Nation Standards Institute (ANSI) introduced an 8-bit version. Computers use ANSI code pages which are whole sets of ANSI codes. Then there are other systems like UNICODE.
Yes they can. The ASCII codes for the digits 0 to 9 are: 0 - 0030 1 - 0031 2 - 0032 3 - 0033 4 - 0034 5 - 0035 6 - 0036 7 - 0037 8 - 0038 9 - 0039
7 bits can make 128 distinct codes.
