🔎 What Is ASCII?

ASCII (American Standard Code for Information Interchange) is a standardized numeric representation for text characters in computers. Each letter, digit, or symbol is mapped to a unique number between 0–127. This tool allows you to translate ASCII to text or convert text to ASCII code formats with ease.

What is ASCII code and how does it work?

ASCII assigns numeric values to characters (letters, digits, symbols). For example, the letter "A" corresponds to 65 in decimal. Computers use this to store and transmit text data.

How do I convert text to ASCII?

Simply enter your text in the input box, choose "Text to ASCII," pick a format (e.g., Decimal), and hit Convert. The tool will show the ASCII representation instantly.

Can I convert ASCII codes back to text?

Yes. Select "ASCII to Text," paste your ASCII codes (e.g., 72 101 108), and choose the correct format and separator. The tool will decode the ASCII into readable text.

What's the difference between binary, hex, and decimal ASCII?

They're just different numeral systems. Binary is base-2, decimal is base-10, and hexadecimal is base-16. All represent the same ASCII character in different formats.

Can this tool handle long strings?

Yes. It can convert both short strings and large paragraphs of text or ASCII values quickly and accurately. Great for text blocks and file snippets.

Is the tool secure?

Absolutely. The tool processes everything in your browser—no data is uploaded or stored. It's safe for personal and sensitive text.
