About This Tool


Text to ASCII conversion reveals the numeric code behind every character. This is fundamental to understanding how computers store and process text.

Our converter shows each character alongside its ASCII decimal value. "Hello" becomes "72 101 108 108 111", revealing that H is stored as 72, e as 101, and so on.

ASCII codes follow a logical pattern: uppercase letters are 65-90 (A-Z), lowercase are 97-122 (a-z), digits are 48-57 (0-9). The difference between upper and lower case is exactly 32.

This tool is valuable for programmers working with character manipulation, students learning about encoding, and anyone curious about how text is represented in computer memory.

You can use ASCII codes for encoding messages, understanding string operations, or debugging character-related issues in code.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the ASCII code for A?
Uppercase A is ASCII 65. Lowercase a is 97. The 32-point difference is consistent for all letters.
Why do numbers start at 48?
ASCII 48-57 represent characters 0-9. These are different from the numeric values 0-9; they're character codes.
What about special characters?
Punctuation and symbols have codes too: space=32, !=33, @=64, etc. Each printable character has a code.
Does ASCII support emojis?
Standard ASCII (0-127) doesn't include emojis. Emojis use Unicode, which extends far beyond ASCII.
How are uppercase and lowercase related?
Lowercase codes equal uppercase + 32. So A(65) + 32 = a(97). This makes case conversion simple.
