	ASCII - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		ASCII is, strictly, a seven-bit code, meaning that it uses the bit patterns representable with seven binary digits (a range of 0 to 127 decimal) to represent character information.
		At the time ASCII was introduced, many computers dealt with eight-bit groups (bytes or, more specifically, octets) as the smallest unit of information; the eighth bit was commonly used as a parity bit for error checking on communication lines or other device-specific functions.
		ASCII reserves the first 32 codes (numbers 0–31 decimal) for control characters: codes originally intended not to carry printable information, but rather to control devices (such as printers) that make use of ASCII, or to provide meta-information about data streams such as those stored on magnetic tape.

	ASCII Character Code Reference (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-09)
		ASCII has only 94 code combinations that can be used to produce printable characters.
		Usually, this is simply due to the limited number of code combinations available, but in some cases, the complexity of the symbol itself and an inability to make it legible in the space provided is an additional reason as to why the symbol was not included.
		One of the earliest 7-bit ASCII devices was an improved line of electro-mechanical printers made by the Teletype corporation.
