How Text-to-Binary Works

Each character has a numeric value (ASCII/Unicode code point). This number is then converted to its binary (base 2), hexadecimal (base 16), octal (base 8), or decimal representation. For example, "A" = 65 = 01000001 in binary.

ASCII Table Basics

ASCII uses 7 bits (0-127) for English letters, digits, and symbols. Extended ASCII uses 8 bits (0-255). Unicode extends this to support all world languages and emoji.
