About this tool
 
Look up ASCII codes and explore common ASCII-compatible code pages with
      this tool. Here, you can find a complete ASCII table. Click on a character
      to view details like the HTML entity for the character, its UTF-8 and
      UTF-16 encodings, and more. You can also search for characters by name,
      byte value, codepoint, or HTML entity. For example, you can search for the  hex code 4C by entering  0x4C in the search bar. Also check out

The American Standard Code for Information Interchange (commonly shortened
      to ASCII) standard only defines 128 characters. However, a single byte can
      represent 256 different values. This means that there are 128 characters
      that are not defined by ASCII. Many operating systems and applications
      define more characters in this range, often depending on the language of
      the user. These different encodings are called code pages. Today, most
      applications use Unicode-based encodings instead of code pages.
           About Unicode
 
The Unicode standard aims to allow users in all languages and regions to
      encode and exchange text in their native scripts. Started in 1987, Unicode
      has grown to include over 149,000 characters and other symbols. Today,
      Unicode is the standard representation of text on computers. Each
      character has a unique  codepoint, which often cannot be represented in a single byte. The
      encodings UTF-8 and UTF-16 are commonly used to represent Unicode
      characters. Notably, UTF-8 and ASCII are compatible, as the first 128
      codepoints of Unicode are the same as ASCII.
