From Numbers to Text: Decoding ASCII 🔡
Computers store all text as numbers, using character encoding standards like ASCII to map each character to a unique decimal value. This tool reverses that process, taking a sequence of decimal numbers and converting them back into the human-readable text they represent.
How the Decoding Works
The process is a simple "lookup" operation for each number in your input:
- The tool takes your input, which is a series of decimal numbers, typically separated by spaces.
- For each number, it references the standard ASCII table to find the character that corresponds to that number.
- It then assembles these characters in order to reconstruct the original text.
For example, if you input 72 101 33:
- The tool finds that 72 is the ASCII code for the character 'H'.
- It finds that 101 is the code for 'e'.
- It finds that 33 is the code for '!'.
The final result is "He!". This is the fundamental way computers read numerical data from a file or network and display it as readable text.
