ASCII
The ASCII (American Standard Code for Information Interchange) is a character encoding standard that represents text in computers and other devices that use text. In C language, ASCII values can be obtained using the int
data type and the printf
function. To get the ASCII value of a character in C, you can simply typecast the character to int
. For example, char ch = 'A'; int ascii = (int)ch; printf("The ASCII value of %c is %d", ch, ascii);
This code snippet will display the ASCII value of the character 'A'.
