Short for 'American Standard Code for Information 
Interexchange', ASCII is an industry standard, which 
assigns letters, numbers and other characters within 
the 256 slots available in the 8-bit code. 

The ASCII table is divided in 3 sections: 
- System codes between 0 and 31. Some of these are not
printable by Windows, and may cause a 'beep' in this
program. 
- Lower ASCII, between 32 and 127. This part of the 
table originates from older, American systems, which 
worked on 7-bit character tables.
- Extended/Higher ASCII, between 128 and 255. This part 
is programmable, in that you can exchange characters 
based on language you want to write in. Extended ASCII 
defines extra characters, such as special symbols, 
foreign language letters, or drawing characters.
