Appendix B. ASCII Codes
The first 32 ASCII (American Standard Code for Information Interchange) characters provide control functions. In the following table, only the first 128 ASCII characters have been included. The remaining 128 characters include further special symbols and letters for national character sets, so there are many varieties of these to suit a wide range of language contexts.
